Product information

Description

The IOGEAR GUB231 Printer Switch is a wired USB switch that lets two computers share a single USB printer, multifunction printer or any USB device without repeatedly plugging and unplugging cables. The unit includes one USB Type-A and two USB Type-B ports and comes with a 1.82 m cable, making it suitable for typical desktop setups where a compact, lightweight switch is required.

Advantages

This printer switch automatically changes the active port when a print job is submitted to the connected USB printer, and it also allows manual switching via a front-panel button. No software installation is required. Active-port LEDs show which computer currently has access, and a switch-lock function prevents unintended switching to ensure consistent data access. The device supports USB 2.0 data rates up to 480 Mbps and is backward compatible with USB 1.1. It draws power from the connected USB host, so no external power adapter is needed.

Suitable for

Home offices where two PCs or Macs share a single USB printer or multi-function printer
Small offices that need to share a scanner, external hard drive or other USB devices between two computers
Workstations requiring a compact switch with visible active-port indication

How to use

Connect the printer or USB device to the Type-A port and connect each computer to a Type-B port using the supplied cable or appropriate USB-B cables. When a print job is sent from one computer, the switch will automatically activate that port for printing. You can also press the front-panel button to manually select which computer has access; the active-port LED will indicate the current selection. Use the switch-lock to prevent others from changing the active connection when necessary.

Usage recommendations

The device is intended for sharing one USB printer or similar device between two computers. For reliable performance, connect directly to host USB ports rather than through unpowered hubs. Ensure printer drivers are installed on each computer for full functionality.
