Works great as mech. switch
I didn't even try the software. I use it in manual mode and it works just the way it is supposed to. I've had it a couple of months. I don't know what could break on it; a good mechanical switch.

Excellent for the purpose
I am usually tech-challenged but....I needed a switch to enable me to print from either a Desktop or a laptop using the same printer (which could not be networked). This device is doing the job perfectly. I use the manual switch, didn't bother with the software.

Automatic function does not work
Not only does the automatic function not work but it broke the file: mup.sys in the windows system directory on a client's computer. After repair, client elected to use device in manual mode. NOT worth $30.00, maybe $10.00.

Works Well
It's operating in manual mode with no complaints. The switch is connected to a Windows laptop and a MacBook and works flawlessly in manual mode. Didn't bother with the software.

Plug and Play
I just plugged in the printer and both PCs it recognized it right away. We do not need the software auto-switch so we are manually switching when we need to. And it works flawlessly

Did the Job
I didn't use the software, just switched printers by pressing the button on the unit. Simple, Works fine, No problems.

Ok, but not Grand
The switch icon keeps disappearing forcing me to manually switch to the printer. I upgraded from an earlier version of this switch due to the older one not being supported by Win7. With the older one I had to manually switch. I should have kept the older one as this switch does not work as stated.

GUB231 Printer Switch Won't Work Automatically
The switch works fine when I use it manually by pressing the button. I can't get the switch to work automatically. I downloaded the software on both computers. Any help would be appreciated.

Works great as advertized
Love the Switch. Works very well and every time. However I didn't bother to install the software since it works perfectly without it

Excellent Choice!
Works perfectly and haven't bothered to install the software. The device is smaller and sleeker than I expected.
