I'm not sure it's possible, but my dad is set on the idea that we can use an iMac in place of an Airport.

We have an iMac with a Cannon MP960 printer right below it. The printer is plugged by USB into an old airport plugged into the wall so that all of the computers in the house can print wirelessly. Is there a way to plug the printer strait into the iMac and use that to print wirelessly from other computers without having to actually use the iMac (ie: email it to ourselves/send it through iChat)

again, im unsure that it's possible, but anything to keep the patriarch happy
