Connecting a Printer
Can I cable up my SG105 to allow my PC and my iMac to use the same (Epson) printer? If that's possible what cables should I use between each desktop device and the SG105 and what cable do I use between the SG105 and the printer? Can I obtain a cable with an ethernet connector at one end and a printer connector at the other?

To be able to connect your Epson to SG105 with an ethernet cable the printer should have an ethernet port.
Usually cat5E/6 ethernet cables should suffice to build the connection to the SG105, which is a gigabit switch.
If you have a wireless printer you could connect the printer direcly to your router's wireless network.
If your printer has only a usb or an LPT port you won't be able to do that without an additional hardware:
