Before he arrived at school, his college room mate kindly offered to share his printer with my son, so it didn't make sense to buy a new printer. However, it would have been a difficult process for my son to use his room mate's printer each time he needed to print something: He'd have to unplug his laptop, bring his computer over to his room mate's desk, unplug his room mate's computer from the printer, connect the printer to his own lap top, reconnect his room mate's computer to the printer and finally, reconnect his own computer to the power source. In addition, if my son needed to print something while his room mate was also using his own computer, that would be distracting and annoying for his room mate to have my son interrupt him each time. This switch solved the problem and saved us from unnecessarily buying a new printer!My son said it is convenient and works great. No plugging and unplugging - just plug in both computers to the switch and it will automatically print from either computer without any software installation. If I remember correctly, you will need to purchase a USB printer cable in addition to this switch if you don't have an extra one handy. ### ⭐ Doesn't work !!! - Update *by J***B on October 11, 2014* Just purchased and installed -per instructions - this and as many, many others have saidIT DOES NOT WORK. Just lets one computer work with printer. Green light only comes onfor one device. If I change cords, the other device works, but it will not automatically change andwill NOT recognize the printer on the other device. Very unhappy and plan on returning to Amazon.Update - Finally got to work - Customer Support at IOGear was HORRIBLE !! Short, curt and not helpfulat all - finally had a friend help who has one and he got it to work by reinstalling it on both computersand it finally worked very well - therefore product seems good, but be ware of trying to get help.Will NEVER purchase a product from them again and recommend others who are not computer"savvy" to lookelsewhere for products. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ IOGEAR 2-Port Switch - Good Value *by M***K on December 1, 2012* I ordered the IOGEAR 2-port switch so I could share a printer between my older (2005) Dell 8400 and my new (2012) iMac desktop. Just getting used to the Mac, I did not want any further complications and my wife and I both use these computers, often at the same time. I spent less than half an hour setting up the connections, downloading the drivers from the website (I always find that to be faster than using the included CD's) and setting the preference for the icon on the Desktop (Dell) and Tray (Mac). It is a distinctive round icon that changes colors based on printer availability and function. Bottom line is that it works flawlessly. Very simple and, even when my wife and I are on at the same time, switching printing beteen each computer is either automatic, depending on who used it last, or two mouse clicks. Great, no-nonsense product. ## Frequently Bought Together - IOGEAR 2-Port USB 2.0 Printer Auto Sharing Switch GUB211 (Black) - IOGEAR 2 Port USB 2.0 Switch - Auto Printer Switch - Manually or Auto Control - LEDs Indicate - Plug n Play - GUB231 - Monoprice USB-A Male to USB-B Male 2.0 Cable - 28/24AWG, Shielded, Gold Plated, 6 Feet, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/432358-iogear-2-port-usb-2-0-printer-auto-sharing-switch](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/432358-iogear-2-port-usb-2-0-printer-auto-sharing-switch) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-04-29*
