Yes, but am I allowed to have both the USB and the Ethernet cable connected to the printer? What happens if I am printing something through the Ethernet connection and someone sends a USB print job in the middle of it? Does the print queue take care of conflicts?

But automating is NOT what I want to do. I would guess that 80-90% of all the data she has in her computer is junk that I don't want in the new computer. So I am afraid this means hours of work. For example, her email account has more than 11,000 unread emails in the in-basket. I tell her "Please, just delete everything more than 60 days old" but no, "some of it might be important". Sigh...
