Oh, you only want to print them once ;-)

Better move them after printing them:



 
on idle 
	set theFolder to "Macintosh HD:Folder to watch:" 
	set doneFolder to "Macintosh HD:Folder done:" 
	tell application "Finder" 
		try 
			set idFiles to (every file of entire contents of folder theFolder whose file type is "indd") as alias list 
		on error -- work around bug if there is only one file   
			set idFiles to (every file of entire contents of folder theFolder whose file type is "indd") as alias as list 
		end try 
	end tell 
	if idFiles is not {} then 
		tell application "InDesign 2.0.2" 
			set user interaction level to never interact 
			repeat with i from 1 to count of idFiles 
				open item i of idFiles 
				print document 1 using "House style" without print dialog -- name of print style to use   
				close document 1 saving no 
				tell application "Finder" 
					move item i of idFiles to folder doneFolder with replacing 
				end tell 
			end repeat 
			set user interaction level to interact with all 
		end tell 
	end if 
	return 10 -- try again in 10 seconds   
end idle
