Everything you mentioned is very reasonable. Just in case I didn't do a good job at explaining the options you have; I want to make sure that one piece of the information is clear.
In many cases, you don't need to buy new UP Ready printers to get rid of connectors. Many printer manufacturers released (and are planning to release) software /firmware updates for existing printers that make these printers UP Ready. If such upgrades are available for your current printers, I strongly suggest considering taking that approach. For printers that don't have an available upgrade, then the connector is the way to go.
