Hey all, I would like to share my home printer between 2 computers, I have heard that I can do this with a USB switch, can anyone give me some more information on these?
yes, that's true but generally there are 2 types manual switch auto switch the difference between them is: with a manual switch, you have to physically move a switch (before printing) to be able to print from either system, but an auto switch "automatically" switches from one system to the other, i think (but i could be wrong) the switch emulates a virtual parallel port for the system that is not printing [google]usb switch[/google] & [google]usb auto switch[/google] here are a couple of Google searches, to help you find one
Thanks for the info. I will give one of them a go, found some good deals at Lindy Welcome to LINDY Computer Connection Technology
