I successfully redirected my wireless printer at home into my remote VDI session and it seemed to print fine when I used it. Granted it was always one or two page documents but functionality was there.

you attach the device as a Local printer (use create new local port TCP/IP port) then you will see it as a locally attacthed printer when you connect to the RDP session.
