Connect your printer to your computer at your desk. Buy 2 Bluetooth adapters. Connect one with the computer which has the printer and the other one with the printerless computer. Built a network, making the computer with the printer a server and the other a client.Now, when both computer are on, If you got a labtop, you can print even if you are working in your garden or toilet.You will need certain drivers or software to built a network using bluetooth connected to USB port. look in yahoo seach to find more.It may not be the answer you are looking for, but try it and you will be pleased.

What you need here is a wirless (or wired) print server, anything similar to the product linked below. In essence it will act as a computer connected to the printer and all print requests will be routed through it. If you connect the printer directly to your connected desktop or something, you'll have to leave that computer running all the time when you want to print. The print server takes care of that problem.The webcam issue... will not be so easy. As far as i know you will not be able to get that connected to your router. However there are wireless (802.x) and wired (ethernet) webcams. I know for sure that Linksys makes one
