Printer Sharing Switch, Manual Switcher Adapter, 2 Computer Share 1 Printer Scanner USB Device Hub with 2 Pack Male Cables

This printer switch works GREAT

Compact , simple, good quality. Cant go wrong with this switch if you simply want to use your printer hard wired to two different computers.

Works

Very helpful if running 2 different computers to 1 printer

I share a printer with my work desktop PC and my laptop. For that purpose I had an A/B switch for a year or two. When I would switch from one to the other, I started getting messages that the USB device couldnt be found. It would sometimes work when I cycled power to the printer, but then even that didnt work anymore. Evidently it was time for a new switch. This one works great. My only complaint is that the lights that indicate which channel is active are the same color, so I have to remember which computer is on which channel. My old switch had 2 colors, which for some reason was easier for me to relate to. Anyway, switch works well, was inexpensive, and includes 2 USB cables of the kind used for printers - which I didnt need, but hey, you can never have too many cables, right?

This allows me to swap between two computers for printing with the click of a button.

I bought two for my 2 laptop and 2 printers so the laptops could use either HP printer. It seem to work for a week but then either the PC laptop software or HP Smart Print Software or the Device itself would not print. I would have to unplug and plug the usb cords, turn printer off and on and try different things in order to print a doc when switching between the printers. Once I went direct from printer to laptop with the usb cords without using the switching device, I could print. I returned the device after 2 weeks and was never reimbursed. Still working on that.

Worked exactly as expected for my need. My need was to have the availability to print via USB from 2 computers.
