Scott,

Epson doesn't say anything (that I can find) about connecting a printer simultaneously
with both usb and firewire ports.  It doesn't buy any functionality so why not 
simplify and leave out the firewire.   USB is plenty fast for what the printer can
handle.  (I think Tiger/Print System will support firewire so then QTR will too).

The only thing I think is an issue with roll paper is that there is a minimum
length of 7 inches.  Info is very vague about a hardware limit.
