May I add: 1)the more stuff you have on a firewall, the more chances there may be an exploitable flaw, and 2)if routing is all it does, and it comes under a determined attack, you can always just power-down. LEAF will run on any old piece of junk you've got lying around, and do well. Dedicate it to the job. There is no reason to run a print server on a router, to do what? Offer print services to the whole wide world? Print services should always be inside the router/DMZ. Routers are NOT servers.
