What about getting a cheap printserver and then simply hook up to it through
the LAN?  That is what I did, got one used from oBoy for about $25, works
flawlessly after you manage to set up the ports correctly.

Here I am of course assuming that you have a small home LAN, if not, then
just ignore this.
