USB Print Server Redux

Back when I bought my USB print server, I was really really really happy with it:

• Cpu and I could each print without having to turn on any extra computers
• Came with explicit Unix instructions for using it as lpr/lpd printer
• Instantly set up when I installed Ubuntu on the aged Athalon.

These days, I'm not feeling the love:

• non-free software that comes with it doesn't install on win32 after SP2, AFAIKT. This was never a problem before SP2, but I ain't downgrading.
  • Setup runs, but doesn't display
• The non-free software driver package from the manufacturer was very difficult to find, since the unit doesn't have a name or model number.

That's what you get for 30 smackers!
