Operation Manual

Connect & Disconnect
“NetUSB” allows you to use USB printers when they’re actually connected to the Sitecom
USB server.
The “connect” operation is a software operation that simulates an actual USB device
plug-in. Therefore, when you do a “connect” operation in the Control Center, the PC can
detect a USB device’s plug-in, although actually you do not plug in any USB device to
your PC. Similarly, the “disconnect” operation is a software operation that simulates the
disconnection of the USB device.
Note: If a USB device is “connected” by a PC, we say that PC has the ownership of the
USB device. Only one PC can get the ownership of a USB device at the same time.
NetUSB installation
The steps to do installation for USB devices, like MFPs:
Make sure the router is turned on.
Connect the USB device to the USB port of the router.
Run the Control Center. In the “USB MFP Server List” window, you can see
the host names and IP addresses all of the Sitecom servers (in blue) on the
network, as shown below.
Click the server. Then all USB devices attached to the server will be shown.
