Windows XP SP3 host, Epson CX6900f multifunction printer/scanner/fax,
VirtualBox 2.2.0, Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalopes guest w. Guest Additions
I don't understand how to access the Epson printer from Ubuntu. I tried
using the Device menu to mount the printer but just got an error message
saying that it was unavailable or already in use (obviously, by
Windows!). I understand that when the printer is working with the
Ubuntu guest it is unavailable to Windows. So how to also detach it (or
whatever) from Ubuntu when I want to use it on Windows?
I am doing work which requires me to print from both OSes.
Can anybody with a similar host, guest, and USB printer tell me how they
succeeded, please?
Regards,
Hedley
P.S. I have a Wacom USB bitpad and a USB webcam if anyone wants to
chime in those as well. 8^)
