If the HP 5510 is still in good shape, why not get a small print server?
I use a wired model from Hawking that works very well from both wired
and wireless Fedora computers. Cost was less that $50 US. CompUSA has a
wireless D-Link advertised on their web site for around the same price
with a $30 rebate.
