Was wondering if there are gadgets that could:

You plug it in into an USB Ports, one into your main computer and one into a printer. So that the printer can be used wirelessly? Is there such a thing ? If so, where could I get one?

Absolutely.

Search for a USB wifi print server...

Make sure you check for compatibility though. I have read some were rather poor in compatiblity.
Good but expensive example.. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000E658...ce&n=172282

They average $40 or so and I have been on the hunt for a wired one actually but the cheapest I could find was about $30 so thats a bit more than I think its worth still...
