Hi !
I would advise you to do the following:
- download the server part of USB over Network on your XenServer:
https://www.fabulatech.com/usb-over-network-download.html
- do all steps according to this instruction:
https://www.fabulatech.com/usb-over-network-download.html
- run ftusbnetd daemon:

- share your usb printer:

- download and install the client part of USB over Network on your virtual Windows OS:

- add the IP/NetBios name of USB over Network (server) on the client side:

- connect your printer on the client side:

- install the driver for your printer on the USB over Network (client) side.

Thank You very much.
What are prerequisites for ftusbnetd daemon to run?
What support from kernel is needed?
By default XenServer don't detect anything except usb disk.

Hi  
You can test the static build for your purpose (XenServer usage):
https://www.fabulatech.com/dists/usbnet-lin/5.1/ftusbnet-5.1.tar.gz
 
If you don't see the new devices via "./ftusbnetctl list" after plugging then you can use the following command for reread (see README for more):
sudo killall -HUP ftusbnetd
