Terminal Server. USB for Remote Desktop.

October 14, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Task: access local USB devices in Terminal Server. I am fortunate in that I get to work from home on a fairly regular basis.

Sharing USB printer

October 14, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Sharing the printer with Windows traditional network sharing is not ideal. Printer status information, such as ink level, does not transmit well over traditional SMB printer sharing. A remote USB solution, on the other hand, makes the printer driver installed on my laptop behave as if the printer were directly attached. Googling for “usb network“. One thing though: I would like the software to work as a service under Windows so that the printer sharing feature could be available to remote users even before a user logs on to the main computer. I haven’t tested this yet, maybe this feature is already incorporated. Clean, clear and beaufitul interface, very simple installation, ‘just works’. My main computer runs Vista 64-bit and other remote USB drivers I tested were incompatible. This one seemed to work just fine.

You can download USB to Network and use it for free for 15 days!
