We have a Canon MG2120.  How do I allow more than one person's computer to print to it?  Can I network?  I can't find the IP address.

That printer does not appear to have networking capacity.  It seems to only have a USB port.  If this computer were connected to a computer on your home LAN on a full tme bases, then that computer should be able to share the printing functionality of the it, but not the scanning. 

Scanners cannot normally be shared.  Probably because one must actually be physically standing in front of the scanner in order to use it.

Okay, thanks.  How do I share the printing capacity?

How you share depends upon which Operating System that you are using.  Printer Sharing may be beyond the intent and scope of these forums.  Your OS should have help files to tell you how to do it.  If not, you should be able to find instructions at either Microsoft's or Apple's web sites.
