IOGEAR GUB231 2-Port USB 2.0 Automatic Printer Switch

Reduce cable changes and keep shared peripherals available with the IOGEAR GUB231 2-Port USB 2.0 Automatic Printer Switch. Designed for two computers to share one printer or multifunction device, it automatically switches to the preferred computer when a print job is sent. That means less manual intervention and fewer interruptions in environments where a single device serves multiple users. The desktop form factor fits neatly beside a printer, scanner, or external USB device, making it a practical choice for workgroups that need controlled access without adding another networked print appliance. It can also be used to share one external hard drive, scanner, or other USB peripheral between two systems, which makes it useful beyond printing. For small offices and shared workstations, this switch delivers a clean way to manage access to a single USB device. The result is a simpler desk, fewer unplugged cables, and a more orderly workflow for teams that need dependable device sharing.
