 Does what it supposed to. November 24, 2008
Has been a great switch so far, and hasn't messed up on me yet. I would recommend this product.
Super easy, super cheap -- just what we were looking for July 24, 2008
It's amazing how few options there are for hooking up multiple computers to a single printer. This was a great alternative to all the wireless routers, wired routers, and office-appropriate megaservers that are just way too big and expensive for a home office environment. We hook it up to each laptop and use it as, essentially, a toggle switch. It's easy to install, easy to use and incredibly inexpensive. All-around satisfied customer!
Plug-N-Play June 16, 2008
Just plug it in and you can use it! Very easy on Windows XP.
The only semi-negative thing is that it beeps when you turn your computer on. First time I heard it, I thought it was my motherboard telling me I had a hard drive failure.
 So far, so good; works as it is supposed to do. June 16, 2008
The IOGEAR USB 2.0 Peripherals Sharing Switch (GUB201) has had some bad reviews like it worked for a short time and ... Well, I have been using the hub for our Epson printer, my laptop and my wife's tower system and it has always changed when toggled, and the printer works when selected. I have not tried to use it for scanning yet, but am sure it will be ok. I am pleased.
Plug and play May 31, 2008
I have 2 computers and one printer. I plugged the USB2.0 switch in and it worked. You can select the computer by the switch on the top or by pressing the num lock key twice. It automatically switches to the first computer that you turn on.
