You purchase a common consumer Router. Plug the ISP's modem into the Internet port on the router. If the router does not automatically get an IP from the ISP then you will either have to clone the MAC from the computer previously hooked directly to the ISP modem(most consumer routers will allow this) or contact the ISP to let them know that they need to change the IP assignment from the PC's MAC to the Router's MAC. After that you just connect the everything normally, map the network printer and set up printer sharing for the local printer.
