I'm using a HP PSC 2510

It has a network interface (as well as usb) - it's a nice little
multifunction printer/scanner/fax.  To my surprise, it had a web
interface which allows you to scan stuff without needing to configure usb.

So - on your sunray you just browse (using mozilla) to the printer
(http://printer.homenetwork), click preview, scan (as pdf, jpg, etc
etc).  It works well !!

I've configured it to print with both CUPS (sun JDS 2 + Sunray) and Sun
Printer thingy (Sol 10  + Sunray)

So - back to your original question, I'm not using the USB
functionality, but having the network printer/scanner has saved me lots
of pain, especially with a couple of laptops (windows) in the house
