Netgear makes a router that also has a USB port (model CG814M). Is it possible to attach a USB printer, then use TCP/IP to print to it? Here is their web site;

Not with this. This device USB port is for connecting to the comptuer and acts only as a USB client device. To put a USB printer on the network you need a USB print server like this

or some other manufacturer
15" Macbook Pro 1.83 2 GB RAM
Blackbook 13.3 Powerhouse 2 GB RAM
MacMini Dual Core 2 GB RAM (Sadly running Windows Most of the time)
Numerouse Workstations running windows and Linux. Sorry don't have the specs, I don't pay much attention to them anymore. :)
