I know what I want, I just don't know what it's called, or whether anybody makes it...
What I want to do is put my new printer/scanner on the home network so that it's available to everything else on the LAN. Back in the day, one could buy an
adapter with a parallel port on one end and an Ethernet port on the other. This is a new, USB printer/scanner, so what I want is an adapter with a USP port on
one end and an Ethernet port on the other.
While I'm at it, it would be nice to put a USB hard drive on the LAN.
No, I don't have room for another, dedicated PC to handle this.
What am I looking for, does anybody make one, and where can I find one available?
