[ale] Print Server & Printer

[Robert Heaven]

I have a Hawking HPS1U (el-cheapo) USB Print Server with an HP 5150 printer attached, and this combination SUX. After they sit idle for an extended period, I literally have to power cycle BOTH devices just to get them to talk to each other. Hawking tried to stuff too many features (DHCP Server?) into this tiny little "matchbox" sized device.

I'm looking to get a home network print server -- I know, I could build a
machine to do it, but I want something quick, easy, and silent -- and I'm
looking for something that plays well with CUPS.  Any recommendations?
