In a year or two you will not be able to buy a printer without ethernet or wireless integrated. Why develop a functionality that will be obsolete by the time it is released and only handfull of users will use it until their old printers die. You can buy a print server for 10$ or less on ebay. Not worth the effort, not to mention flash/memory usage. IMHO Mikrotik makes routers for advanced users, and should more focus on routing than on file sharing, printer sharing and similar features. Maybe a Remote USB approach is better suited.

Kecuali mikrotik digunakan untuk keperluan beban yang besar (network yang kompleks, routing yang rumit) sebaiknya menggunakan spesifikasi yang cukup memadai. Mikrotrik Routeros. File server mikrotik usb flash disk mikrotik usb ftp mikrotik usb flash. Melalui flashdisk cara instal mikrotik menggunakan flashdisk cara install.

That means it will not become obsolete and satisfy a lot of people: printers, multifunctionals with working scanners and remote fax, cameras, IR receivers, remote sound cards, you could even have your mouse and keyboard in a rack in the basement Such product already exist, I've tried one (ST-Lab) and have mixed emotions about it. This approach also takes more programmers from other tasks to develop and maintain windows/mac/linux drivers. Why integrate it into a router if you can get a working unit for 10$ in a local store or ebay. Dolzhnostnaya instrukciya medsestri dnevnogo stacionara. Maybe a Remote USB approach is better suited.

Then I don't need to buy Mikrotik with their RouterOS. Also I had DD-WRT on my Asus with USB. Print server worked, but there are two ways how to get this work: Standart TCP/IP connection (LRP or RAW protocol) as in DD-WRT. It work, but it's only one direction communication.

So I can't read any information from printer (rest of ink, no paper etc.) Then you can make virtual USB over TCP. This way it work really like when you have it directly in computer. But it also mean to have application for it. Asus has this feature, but it's very bugged. This way you can also use scanner on multi-printer devices. Sorry to say, but hosting a WINS server on a router IMHO is far less useful than a remote USB implementation. If you really need a WINS server in your network, than that is a job of a dedicated domain controller.

Otherwise it's just another 'let's just have it' feature. Maybe a WINS proxy, but no more.
