I'm not sure how you could arrange stuff, or how far you'd have to go 
the scanner or printer, or whatever you're wanting to move.  I think 
twelve feet is supposed to be the limit on parallel, but I use to run 
more than that.  You could also use a print server, not sure what 
operating system you're running, if you have a network, if you are 
already wireless and so forth.  Lots and lots of variables here.
