 Can't do it

Sorry, this is impossible.
The Visor is a USB slave device only, as is the printer. Two USB slave devices CAN NOT communicate.
By design the USB system is "host centric". This is, it needs a host computer - i.e. a PC, Mac, or Linux box - to control all the devices on the USB bus.
This is a serious flaw in USB in my opinion.
