I think there is a default udev rule that mounts a USB drive, yes.

I think that is also a Gnome/KDE default (I don't run either, so
I can't say). As far as I know, dbus + hal are working in Etch; if
not, a bug report should be sent in.

I almost never use the console when running Debian, and so far,
I find Debian quite excellent in a graphical mode.

What are the details of the network printer? For me, I either
use the ipp address or set things up as remote ldp's using cups.
