My experience of cheapy £20 - £30 USB Print Servers is fairly disappointing.
I'd strongly recommend that if you have a PC running most of the time,
you're far better connecting the printer directly to it and using SMB
sharing with the printer.
You'll find that most print servers won't allow you to fiddle with some of
the extra parameters on the printer, and certainly if you ever want to hook
up a multifunction device (fax/printer/scanner) to one of 'em, you'll be
disappointed.

Chris
