Re: Samsung C410 KVM USB pass-through [not quite resolved]



Samsung offers Linux drivers on their site. [0] [1]
I think it is possible to set up a cups/ samba share

(or is it an other printer?)

success,

scroll down for the Linux driver

The problem isn't with Linux drivers. It works perfectly under Linux. It's an issue with running in a virtual machine and/or the Windows driver.

I just did a little more testing and found the problem has now reversed itself. Assigning the USB port to the VM seems to take it away from the host. This means I can print from Windows but not Linux. If I remove the port from the VM, Linux printing capability is restored.

Is there a way to share a USB port between a VM and the host?


isn't it possible to run the cups server in Linux and install a network printer in the VM?
