The status then changes to Available.
For each computer, after you click the
Connect
and
Disconnect
buttons once, the utility
automatically handles the printing queue. The status of the printer displays as Available on all
the computers. Here are the rules of operation:
•
When the status is Available, you can use the USB printer.
•
When the status is Manually connected by
xxx
, only the
xxx
computer can use the printer.
Other network devices must wait until the
xxx
computer has released the connection, or
until the connection times out (the default time-out value is 30 seconds).
•
You can set the value for the default time-out time from the Control Center - Configuration
screen.
•
The USB Control Center utility must be running for the computer to print to the USB
printer attached to the router. If you exit the utility, printing does not work.
•
Some firewall software, such as Comodo, blocks the ReadySHARE Print utility from
accessing the USB printer. If you do not see the printer in the utility, you can disable the
firewall temporarily to allow the utility to work.
