Is Multiple Vlans on a 2960 an Acceptable Design?

My coworker is telling me that although you can define multiple vlans on a 2960, it can cause problem and is not fully supported by Cisco.  Can I have your opinion on this?

Assume I configure a 2960 with half the ports on vlan 100 and half the ports on vlan 200.  I take one port and make it a trunk that goes to an upstream 3845 router.  

Will I be able to print from a workstation on vlan 100 to a printer on vlan 200? Does that mean that the traffic goes up to the router and then the router sends it back down the same trunk?
