remote printing via remote desktop

I have heard that it is possible to print to a local printer while you are using vpn and connecting through remote desktop, as long as you install the printer as a local printer while you are logged on remotley. I Have added an epson stylus c44 and an OKI B4250 this way using the add printer wizard, however neither has worked. does this remote printing work for some printers and not others?
Or am i leaving something out like some sort of additional software?

Thanks

Concw
