    Is it possible to set up a USB scanner to be shared over a network? In this case I'm looking at my Lexmark x1140 All in one. Sharing the printing is easy, but I have 2 home PCs in the same room, and I'd like the scanner part of it to be accessible to each. Does anyone know of a way to accomplish this? Other than unplugging and plugging in of course.

    Does anyone know the software they're actually referring to there? It was nice of them to mention that it exists, but it would have been nice to actually say what it is so the curious could check it out :)
