I found that out too, though I was thinking more about electrical
robustness.  Back in my early days of personal computing, we learnt to
never dis/connect peripherals while the equipment was powered.  USB
goes against that concept.

I found USB 2 adequate, printers use quite a lot of data, more than a
lot of people would expect, and USB 1 was never really good enough.

e.g.  You might think a JPEG is small data because it's only a couple
of megs in filesize.  But the rendered image could be tens or hundreds
of megabytes.  Likewise, when text is rendered as an image, rather than
just sending the text.

> My printer's USB 1 bus really stinks

I feel that USB 1 manages keyboards and mice, but little else.
