Which distro can anyone recommend for low end hardware ?

That would work, BUT they may not want the complexity or expense of networking hardware and all the wires running around.  Not to mention having to set up a server, although they could concentrate their upgrade expenses on that box.  He did not say how many total boxes they expected to have.  He did say that they would network only for printer sharing.  If that is a requirement and you don't have too many nodes, you could get hubs or cheap Linksys 10/100 switches.   Make sure to check linuxprinting.org for Linux printer compatibility before buying.  Cups or samba for printing should do the trick.
