I got in late on this. Why would networking the printer not be in the
budget? I found some print servers for as little as $43. Check these links
at buy.com for a sample of what I found.

I have not used any of these, but am considering getting one for my
3-computer network at home. If anyone has used the low cost Hawking adaptor,
I would like to hear if the results are good or bad. It sounds like a nice
product.
Here are some more items I found at worldspy.com:

If I understand right, you have 1 printer and 5 computers and you want all
the computers to be able to use the 1 printer. I have 3 computers, and they
all use my HP820 printer. I installed the software drivers for each OS on
the generic didn't work very well. He is connecting to a HP5 laser ptr. We
want to find a good printer sharing devive that will work with all the
different stuff he has without having to create a network printer. That
ain't in the budget. He keeps track of stocks but doesn't seem to be rich
