You'll have to do some reading on writing udev rules, there are resources on the web about that. AFAIK you can run arbitrary scripts from udev. Find the udev rule that loads the modules when the printer is switched on, and modify it so it calls a script (probably in the background) that loads the module (modprobe), waits for some seconds (sleep) and the removes the module (rmmod).
