    Yes. If you have a HP printer, the solution with HP's blessings is a HP JetDirect which can be a bit pricey. Otherwise, buy a USB print server box for $40-up. Many of these have parallel ports only so check carefully before you buy. Either way, this will connect to your new/existing Ethernet LAN.
