Ashburn, GA, (very close to Heaven!)
Make (cheaper than buying) or get someone to make an ethernet crossover cable, hook the printer to one of the laptops and share it on the network. That will allow the two laptops to network without a hub/router/switch. Of course, if they are presently using their ethernet ports (instead of wireless) for internet access, it may not be desirable to give up the ethernet port on the laptops, as you will not be able to browse and print at the same time on either computer.
