The Select 360 is an AppleTalk printer. AppleTalk can only be active
on one port at a time (wired or wireless) - you should be getting that
message within System Preferences when you change it over.
You may be able to use IP printing via your ethernet bridge, in that
case you would have to set up a new printer with that IP address.
