2-20 Setting Up and Managing Your ReadyNAS Pro
v1.0, December 2008
USB Volume Name and Access Rights Persistence Across Mount/Dismounts
The ReadyNAS Pro Pioneer Edition attempts to remember the name as long as there is a unique ID
associated with the USB device so that the next time the device is connected, the same share
name(s) will be available. Share access restrictions are not saved across disconnects, however.
Setting Up Printers
The ReadyNAS Pro Pioneer Edition device supports automatic recognition of USB printers. If you
have not already done so, you can connect a printer now, wait a few seconds, and click Refresh to
display detected printers. The print share name automatically reflects the manufacturer and model
of your printer and is listed in the USB Printers section of the Print Queue service screen.
Print Shares over CIFS/SMB
The ReadyNAS Pro Pioneer Edition can act as a print server for up to two USB printers for your
Windows or Mac clients.
To set up a printer in Windows:
1. Click Browse in RAIDar or simply enter \\hostname in the Windows Explorer address bar to
list all data and printer shares on the ReadyNAS Pro Pioneer Edition.

Note: Even when access authorization is based on user login, files on a USB device, are
saved with UID 0 regardless of the user account. This is to allow easy sharing of
the USB device with other
ReadyNAS and PC systems.
