Getting a printer to print from two ports

I have two, matching printers, one at work and one at home. I have to change
the port when I want to print at home or at work. I wanted to set up the
properties so it can print from two different ports. I use have a print
server at home and need to plug in a USB at work. I tired the 'Add Port'
features but I don't think that's correct.
Any help/guidelines would be appreciated.
