Switching from Desktop to Laptop via docking station
Which Function key would allow me to switchmy monitor from a desktop computer to my laptop connected via a docking station without shutting one off before switching to the other. BThe monitor is connected to both by a splitter cable (can't remember the actual name). Also, how can I connect my printer to both computers? Does this require the same type of splitter cable (please specify name). Thanks.
Thanks.. how do I switch between computers with both computers operating? I believe pressing either a Function key or some otehr key on the keyboard allows one to switch back and forth... do you know the proper command? Lastly can another KVM or like switch also be employed to share the printer?
