When I want to use my Fuji FinePix 2600z I pull the USB cable out of my printer, stick it into the "in" socket on the hub which is in the base of my LCD screen and plug the camera into an "out" socket on the hub, issue a mount command and I'm in business. No reboots, everything happens on the fly. Afterwards I reverse the above and the printer works again. HTH Pete Ardnamurchan Scotland
