I am looking for a hardware device that would allow me to connect 2 computers to one printer. The printer is a USB printer. I don't want to conect the computers via the network because sometimes our network goes down and then I can no longer use the printer.
I am looking for a device that will switch it automatically. I know I can set up a network to do this but that is not an option (long story). Just need to find a USB Printer Switching Device that will automatically recognize which computer is sending it information and send that information to the printer. Thanks!
