Why do you need a wireless router with a print server? All I did was get a
stand alone print server and ran a cat 5 cable to one of the wire LAN ports
and wired and wireless computers can print to the networked printer
connected to the router. That means you can get the wireless router you
want. As matter of fact the Linksys wireless router is just a wireless/wire
switch plugged into the WatchGuard where the printer with the print server
are located on the network.

Linksys has a standalone print server too.
