How to attach two computers to one printer?

Is there any way to hook up two computers to the same printer? And I don't mean by using a network, I mean physically connecting them. Is there any kind of splitter or anything else that can do this?

Answers:
It is called printer switch (switch because many computer connected but only one computer can switch and print).

Google for "printer switch".

hope it help..
PS:- you didn't give more info about printer like whether it has usb or parallel connection...so I could not provide more specific answer. Search for "printer switch" on internet
yes you can use USB hub, or network hub
Not Really
need a hub for that
No, you'd have to use a network. Or just unplug the printer whenever you need it on the other computer
A printer switch will do the job, but ids not a good answer and they are expensive. I don't see your objection to network printing, and this is the easiest way.
hook one up with a usb and the other with a parallel
I did that and they work fine
network your computers.. connect it with one pc and fetch the data you want to print from the other pc and then print it
