Is anyone aware of a printer that I can connect an external cdrw drive too
and be able to burn a cd from a memory card. I noticed there was an HP
printer that had 2 usb ports. Are those just like a hub? Would the printer
be able to talk to the CDRW as a stand alone printer (not connected to PC)?
Any thoughts wwould be appreciated.

No, theyt are either hubs, od specifically for digital cameras. you
need the smarts of a PC to handle CD burning.

The reason that the HPs - i.e., the PHOTOSMART series - have two USB ports
is so that you can hook one port to a USB camera and print directly from the
camera while the other USB port is still connected to your computer.
