If you have trouble setting up the print sharing, I see no reason why an A/B
printer switch couldn't be used. just change the cableing so each computer is
on the "output" end of the switch and the printer is the "input" side of the
switch, then label A as Win and B as Linux. I haven't tried this...but the
switch is BI-Directional, so it shoould work. Maybe someone else has some
input on my suggestion????????
Just a suggestion, and MAY CAUSE PROBLEMS, but it should work like this.
