George, I am way out of my league on this, but I don't know of any printer that has a firewire, possibly there is, but unless it was a very busy office situation where the printer was receiving massive input from many sources I don't see the printer needing anything but USB, or Ethernet. The printer can't keep up with the input anyway, so it goes to the buffer, the USB can certainly send it fast enough to choke the print speed.
