On my Kirkwood NAS (Netgear Stora) running Wheezy, I have a hub connected, I find that plugging devices into the hub in the 'wrong' port resets it. This doesn't affect my '/' as it's on the SATA disk. Do you know if the ports on your QNAP are a hub internally?
I find the USB resets are port order dependent, if you can try swapping the root fs and the printer, it might work. I take it you don't have a serial console?
