How does it work?

With the Bitronics Software loaded and the ports properly configured for the
printers as shown in step 8 above, when you print in Windows

®

, the print job

goes to the Bitronics software first. There, the Bitronics software adds a
command in the beginning of the print job telling the Bitronics Switch which
port to send the print job to.

In the example below, the Epson Printer is connected to Port B, as described
in the Where: line. When printing, the Bitronics software tells the Bitronics
switch to switch to Port B first, then allows the print job to go through the
switch, out to Port B, and to the Epson printer.

Then if you wish to print to the second printer, let’s say a LaserJet

for

example, all you have to do is select that particular printer in the Print dialog
box. Click OK, and the print job is automatically sent to the LaserJet

printer

on Port A of the Bitronics switch.
