We are on a little 5 mac ethernet network and want to hook a dymolabel printer up to our ethernet hub. It has a usb connection. What kind of connector do I need to buy? Thank you in advance for any help. Please email replies to me.

You probably can't share that printer on the network unless the manufacturer provides some sort of network adapter for it or you can manage to get USB Printer Sharing working with it.

Ok, I have usb print drivers on each computer, isn't the label maker pretty much a printer? It does come with software, but i haven't checked into the networking capability of the software, I will do that but I need to know if I am able to do that, which device would be best for me to connect it to the ethernet network. Thanks again for your reply.

Try setting up USB Printer Sharing for it while it's connected to one of the computers. There isn't going to be any other way to do it.
