I have a Canon multi-function printer that is not network ready. I have to use a wireless print server to print across the network. I can only use the scanner with a direct USB connection. Is it possible to connect the printer to a nearby computer AND the print server at the same time using only the one USB connection the printer has???

Might be easier to share the whole device than try to get a usb splitter. I have heard of A/B boxes that may work either with switch or smart technologies. "Best Practices", Event viewer, host file, perfmon, antivirus, anti-spyware, Live CD's, backups, are in my top 10

the computer i need a direct connection to is a laptop that is not always there. if i do a share, everyone else on the network could not print if the laptop is gone unless i physically move the usb cable back and forth from the laptop to the print server everytime i take the computer somewhere.
