[QUOTE="pine man, post: 1615340, member: 329282"] I have an iMac and a PC both connected to a Sky broadband router with an Ethernet cable. I have a Canon MG8250 multifunction printer, which, at the moment, is connected to the iMac with a USB cable. I would like the printer to be capable of being used by both computers and, rather than use WIFI, I would like, if possible, a wired connection. The printer has an Ethernet socket and I wondered if I could connect the printer to the Sky router and then either computer could access it via that router. Is this feasible? [/QUOTE]
