[THIN] printer mapping question

We have  large and very heterogeneous client environment.  Currently I have most users set to use the CItrix Universal driver.  I also have a policy that overrides the Universal driver and allows either the native driver OR an alternate based on our printer mapping file.  Users that need this are placed in a group that the alternate drivers are setup for.  This basically gives me 2 choices of how to setup each kind of printer.  Is there a way to setup to have a 3rd option to map individual printers?
For example if I have HP laserJet (whatever) and it doesnt seem to play nice with universal driver, so I set users that have it into the alternate group where they get mapped to HP LaserJet 4 instead.  Now I have user C that needs the ntive driver but I want to keep everyone else at LaserJet 4. Is there a way to get a policy in place that will allow that?  I have been looking but so far I can't see a way to setup a 3rd mapping option. Session printers aren't really an option i don't think because All our clients come in over the internet
