    I have 2 one care accounts and 5 pc's in our home.  The 2 main computers are hubs to each account.  1 desktop hub is connected to a Dell laser printer. The 2 pc's on that account with the desktop as a hub can share the printer and print from thier respective stations.  The other 2 pc's on the seperate one care account can not print to the printer located on the hub pc for the other account.  Is there a way to combine my multiple accounts, so that all my pc's reside in the same one care circle so all our machines can print to one hub pc?

    You should be able to use the standard Windows Printer Sharing functionality to make the printer available to the other PCs. Unfortunately, there is no way to combine the 5 PCs to one account due to limitation of 3 PCs per subscription and each subscription requiring a unique LiveID.
