Auto Connecting Printers

This feature automatically connects and disconnects printers whenever you have a
print job queued. This gives you a printing experience that is similar to using a print
server.

The Auto Connect feature for printers actually connects just the printer component of
a compound device regardless of what the separate compound devices is set to. This
cuts down on the amount of connections needed before printing. (See

Compound

Devices

on page 20.)

Auto Connect is only enabled in the Multi-User Connect Mode.

Before You Begin

Before you begin, please make sure that you have installed and connected your
printer using the Lantronix UBox's USB Devices tab (see

Connecting Your USB

Device

on page 15).
