How to setup a port in SMC router to let it working like a uplink port?

OK, I know this is weird.

I have 2 routers (since I join in hot deal forums, I've too many stuff filled up my basement). I got the SMC router (w/printer server, 4 ports switch) awhile ago.

Now I wanna use it as a normal switch.

Because it does not have a uplink port, can I just use a cross-over CAT 5 cable to hook it up to another router? I really like its printer port and don't want to buy another 8 port switch.

Thanks.
