What kind of connection does the printer provide, if USB you can use a USB hub, if RJ45, use a switch. Printer needs to have network support to use a switch.
 
If you only have two computers, you can set up a "peer-to-peer" network using a crossover cable connected to your ethernet connections. Check out this site for details. If you want to hook up 3 or more, you will need a hub.

Networking computers

Do you want to share the printer connected to another computer? Or do you want to connect two computer to the printer? Which one? You don't need Internet to share a printer.
