Windows 2000 server TS printing issues

It seems to be a recurring problem. Some (but not all) don't seem to get their local printers added. I can not find any security reasons for the users that CAN vs. the ones that can't.
I am starting to think about getting one of these third part TS printing solutions.
I have heard about THINPRINT, and Net2Print. Any opinions on these solutions or suggestions on a better one?

It would be nice to not have to spend $1k to fix this...

I usually....

Share out the local printer onto the network. (Setting up permissions as well).
Log into the TS server as admin and connect to the shared printer.
Log off the TS server and then logon to the TS server as the user.
Connect to the network share of their computer.

This is a small business with very few local printers attached so I can get away with doing this.

That won't work in this situation, the users are scattered in different locations.
