And DON'T hang ANYTHING else on USB (except, of course, the keyboard and

Actually, if you've got separate USB-1, -2, and -3 ports, make sure it's 
the only thing on the -3 ports. Sharing devices on a hub (and a lot of 
mobos have internal hubs so you don't know if ports are shared or not) 
can cause all sorts of grief if you're unlucky.

If the printer requires a near constant stream of data over the USB port, you 
might want to look into a physical cable instead of wifi for the communication.

You probably want to take a look at enabling:

CONFIG_USBIP_CORE

Then have a look at your:

/usr/src/linux/Documentation/usb/usbip_protocol.txt
