Can I reverse using the input as an output and the outputs as an input? e.g. Two computers feeding one printer?Thanks

That would require a print server instead of a hub. Puts the printer on a network. Easy to do.

Yes. It prompts you to insert the output (the front pages) back into the feeder so it can print the back side. It guides you on how to do this. Reading the other responses on this thread, I agree this requires human intervention, but it's not a big deal. I do a lot of double-side printing. It works well. To put this in the proper perspective, this is the same process as for my more expensive HP LaserJet Color 300 which cost twice as much.

Not at the same time time (it's a single output supply). But it is a "floating" supply. By connecting the red output to another supply's ground or common , the green output will be "negative" relative to the common connection.

I have two PCs on a home network, with this print server also on the network. I was able to print from both PCs simultaneously. The print jobs were queued in the order received. The first job was 5 pages while the second was only one page. All 5 pages printed before the single page, just as you would expect.

as far as I know I don't think you can hook it backwards the way that it was created 2 items to go into 1 imports cuz I have my Playstation 3 and my cable box running through that device what you asking if you can put one item into two separate input

No. You can have multiple POS systems print to the printer but it only has the ability to open one cash drawer according to the specifications. In theory you could try to split the connection from the printer to the cash drawers but if that worked it would still only open both cash drawers at the same time.

Not sure... I bought it to install one printer by two PCs and seems as it would work as you first turn on your PCs, but once you press one of the switches, it will completely disconnect the device from the other PC, and it would need to be rebooted to make it work. As for me, it was a waste of my money

Yes it works in order to do that., is very easy because it does not need configuration, only needs to select what PC is going to use the printer at this time.

I think it may be able to use both outputs at the same time, but only from the same source, not from 2 different sources.Yet to verify it's capabilities...

I'm not sure what you mean with this question. Can you elaborate a bit? If you mean, can you make a copy of something else, then the answer is no. This is just a printer. Not a scanner, or fax or copier.

Sure whatever you would normally print, set your printer to reverse for iron on

I use the switch to connect a printer to two computers and switch between them. The connector to the printer is type a. The connectors to the computers are type b.

I use it with 2 separate inputs going to one output. I don't know if it works the other way.

I don't really know - I have one printer connected to the top slot and the two computers connected via USB to the #1 and #2 buttons. I don't know why it wouldn't work as well with 2 computers and 1 printer....it is just a matter of USB connections.

The switch box has NOT always worked for with two computers attached to 1 printer... You can try it , but there may be signal loss if the USB cables are long.

Of course. It behaves like a network printer. The print jobs are queued and the first one prints first and then the next.

In our experience this did not work because the outputs are backwards this has it going out instead of in but we couldn't find the the right one so we gave up. Hope this helps.
