Part Number: SWB0414BA Product Description: Bi-Tronics Auto Switch Box 4 Computers to 1 IEEE 1284 Printer or 1 Computer to 4 IEEE 1284 Printers Category: Switches - Electronic Printer Parallel IEEE1284 Price: $73.89 Product Weight: 0.6 lbs Full Size Picture The SWB0414BA is a Bitronics Auto Switch that will operate in either, one computer to four printers mode, or four computers to one printer mode, called respectively 1 to 4 mode and 4 to 1 mode. These switches operate in 4 to 1 mode without software drivers and deliver print jobs to the printer on a first come, first served basis. This means that if one computer is printing to the printer the other three computers must wait for the Auto Switch to finish the current print job. The SWB0414BA, when operating in 1 to 4 mode, the included software would be needed to select which printer of the four attached to the Auto Switch will print the print job. You can only be printing to one printer at a time unless all four printers are identical and you wish to rapidly product many copies of the same document. The SWB0414BA can go into a unique "broadcast" mode and all four printers will print the exact same document, leaving you with four copies.
