Both Lexmark and HP make small print server boxes. You could do some research on their sites and see what they offer. If they have nothing you're looking for, I'm sure there are plenty of other companies out there making similar products. Remember, Google is your friend...

I don't think that most multifunction devices work through print server boxes. A print server in general is an output device. A scanner is an input device. A fax is both. Personally I have never gotten a shared multi-funtion to work as a shared printer. The other functions drivers has a higher priority than the printer. You can't share input funtions because it doesn't know the destination computer. In one case I could not install another printer driver on the same port.
