4.6. Auto-Connect Printer

The method described in section 4.5 is so-called manual-connect, which means users must manually

connect the USB device before using that device, and must manually disconnect the USB device after

using the device, otherwise nobody else can connect this device. However, for printers and scanners (and

MFPs), the USB device server supports auto-connect so users don’t need to manually connect/disconnect.

This and the next sections show you how to do this.

After the driver is installed as described in section 4.4, you can see a newly created printer in the Control

Panel’s “Printers and Faxes”. Follow the steps below to do a NetUSB auto-connect printing.

1. In the Control Center, click the USB device server that has the desired printer (or MFP) attached.

2. Click the desired printer (or MFP).

3. Click the “Auto Connect Printer” button and choose “Set Auto-Connect Printer”.

The following figure will appear.
