USB auto switch needed

[eljainc]

Hello,

I'm looking for a good quality USB auto switch. It should allow two or
more computers to share a USB printer. It should not rely on the user
to manually select which computer to use to print. Also, it should not
require software to be loaded on the PCs.

Please post any recommendations for USB printer switches.

IMHO printer sharing is best accomplished over Ethernet rather than USB.

I've never seen such a device. Just use a print server instead.
