If you are going hard wire, you don't even need a docking station for a single printer, if the laptop and the printer have USB. One USB cable solves that.
Need two printers, and two HD monitors (large screen) at least.
What I'm trying to accomplish ::
Bring my field laptop in to the office, plug into Monitors and printers to process and print images. But, I don't want to always transfer data back and forth from the laptop to an office set-up.
So, thought if I could Dock the laptop, and then use wireless keyboard (rather then laptop keyboard, which is PITA on a desk ... then I could use the laptop to plug in, and won't have all the data transfer and update every time I use one or the other.
IF I'm not careful, I create details on one file, then (maybe) forget if it gets transferred -- (I know, I know, label / date it) but using field laptop in a dock to the larger processing system is much easier for the workflow (and storage). Then take the laptop with me.
It's nearly all images - sports and wildlife and some other outdoor stuff.
