    Print Server

    I have an old Laser printer with a scanner/fax on it that connects via Parallel port to my desktop. I have need to use it from two other laptops in my house. We have wireless G access, but no official "network". The PCs to not see/talk to each other. A large thumb drive is our current "network".

    I seriously doubt this printer's drivers are included with any modern print server.
    Is this worth persuing? I see hardware with multiple parallel ports and it looks like what I want,
    but I don't want to have to hassle with returning items if it's doomed.

    The laser printer is a Brother MFC 9600.
    I also want to plug in an epson color inkjet that I picked up a couple of years ago.

    Thoughts? experiences?
    Merry Christmas
