USB devices on VMware Fusion Pro with Windows 10 on OSX 10.11 (Mac)

Hi Guys,

 

Have a issue with running VMware Fusion Pro 8 on a Mac

 

Current setup we have 4 USB Label Printers connected to a Mac with Windows 10 running on VMWare fusion Pro 8 which we want to use on Windows side only. But we found that each time the Mac is rebooted the printers don't stay connected and have to click settings > printers and connect each USB printer individually to get them back online. Attempted configuring/fixing this via virtual machine's configuration file (.vmx) as per Automatically connecting USB devices at virtual machine power on (1648) | VMware KB but didn't help as many times I tried wouldn't stay.

 

Now getting sometimes after reboot and re-connecting printers manually they are renaming themselves to default printer names and loosing all their settings/stocks created for labels. Any ideas how to resolve this?

 

We don't want to share the printers via the Mac side as there is no mac driver for these printers.

 

Any help would be grateful.

 

Thanks
