[Web4lib] putting one printer on two Local Area Networks

[John Fitzgibbon]

Hi,
 
In each of our libraries, we have two networks, one for the public and
one for staff. The public network is connected to the Internet via a DSL
line. Each network has a printer with a network card. We are now about
to replace these printers. Is it possible to acquire a printer with two
network cards and put it on both networks or is this a bad idea?
Alternatively, is it possible to assign two IP addresses to the network
card of the printer?
 
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
 
Regards
John
