USB Replacement Service
USB Replacement Service is software that automatically changes the output port when another printer of the same model is replaced. When a printer connected using a USB interface is replaced with another printer of the same model, this software detects the new printer, rewrites the printer driver properties registered in Windows, and changes the output port automatically. For example, if a USB-connected printer is malfunctioning, this software allows you to simply change the printer and continue printing without having to manually change the settings in the application or operating system.
Note:|
Do not use USB Replacement Service in environments with two or more printers of the same model.
