That'll be down to the hardware/firmware inside the print server. Your print server would have to have the capability of either learning or being told that it's got additional ports attached to it. Otherwise it can't make any association between USB ports and the different printers attatched,

To be honest I think your going to need to buy a print server with multiple USB ports on it.
