Using a router with a usb print server for other uses

A question for the experts here.
Could a router with a usb print server be used for other usb functions
?
On some routers such as the SMC Barricade BR14U Router there is a
built in USB print server.
Since this is a standard USB port is there any way this USB connection
could be put to other uses - such as sharing files off a USB flash
drive or USB external hard drive ?
