I spun up a Remote Desktop Server instance on Amazon's Virtual Private Cloud service… What's the best/easiest way to print from the VPC to local printers?
The local printers are IP based, but not "cloud printers".
I'm familiar with how Cloud Printing works for Chrome, but is there a way to install a cloud printer as a regular Windows printer on a Remote Desktop Server and "just have it work?"

Hmm, if you can connect to server instance on VPC via RDP, then just configure local resources like printer\disks to be mapped to the remote server in RDP window and when print as usual. You may need also to install printer drivers on the remote host for this feature to work.
