Be Super Careful with your choice of printers and print servers.

Many cheap printers require special drivers on the PC, and these do
not always work with printservers. If your printer has "clever"
ink-level monitors or other utility functions, be suspicious. This is
ESPECIALLY true with multifunction devices.

For example,

Works: HP Laserjet 6, HP Deskjet 815c
Doesn't work: Kyocera X5150, Epson Photo R220

These were tested with a parallel port Edimax printserver, and a USB
port printserver built into my SMC router. In the "not work" cases,
either it simply didn't work at all, or printed half a page then
crashed, or printed garbage.

So... CHECK with the printer maker and the wireless printserver maker
to confirm your printer is compatible.
