[OT] advice: print server or NAS?

folks, hoping to drink from the font of your wisdom. I have a NAS through which I can pipe printing via cups. it works fine but I wonder if it wouldn't save electricity to get a dedicated print server and only use the NAS when I am doing serious backups. btw my problem with kpowersave not showing configuration options was solved (sort of) by restarting /usr/sbin/hald. long for a cleaner solution. that's a different topic. what about NAS vs print servers?
