 That may depend on other considerations.  If the user already has a
 network and is sharing the internet, he probably has a router for his
 network.  The print server would then allow any network computer to use
 the printer without another computer having to be on.  Moreover, if the
 printer is an all-in-one, typically only printing can be shared over the
 network if the printer is connected as a locally shared device.  Scanning
 and faxing require a print server for sharing.  Ed Vance originally asked
 about an Epson CX3810, which is both USB only and an all-in-one.

 Lastly, if the user has only one computer and one printer, then the
 NET solution won't work, since the specified location for the directed
 output has to be to a server; it can't be to the local computer.

 Third party software, such as the product at dos2usb.com would be the
 only solution I can envision in that last scenario, that wouldn't require
 additional hardware (another computer or print server).
