You could install virtualbox and then install XP inside a virtual
machine. As your printer and camera probably are connected via USB, you
would need the PUEL version which you can download from [1]. If you want
to share your printer with the Ubuntu host, you should probably select
bridge mode networking (not the default NAT) for the network interface
of the virtual machine.
