AD bound Macs and Windows Print Server

What is the easiest way to get Macs to connect to printers via Windows print server?

Currently what I am doing is adding the printers to my machine via IP, opening Jamf Admin and grabbing the printers. I then create a Self Service policy for the printers and add them to a "Printers" section of Self Service.

The problem is we have around 300 network printers and I do not want to add them all manually. Is there a different way to do this?

Not that i can see. What you have done there is same for what i do.

We also use Follow Me printing via Papercut, so in theory you could send everything to one virtual printer and release it wherever.
