    This might make me sound ignorant but is there a hub for two computers to use the same printer (without having to press a button to switch back and forth between the computers or without using a server switch)? If so where can I get one and how does the printer not get confused if both computers try to print at the same time?

    Both computers aren't able to connected to a server without a major hassle. One computer is actually a dumb terminal and the other is a computer, but i want to be able to use the printer without using a push button switch box.
