See full text

Disclosed are systems and methods for controlling the enumeration of a multifunction peripheral device on a host computer. A multifunction peripheral device may include a generic and non-generic functional units connected to a host interface. The device may store in its non-volatile memory one or more drivers for the non-generic functional unit. The peripheral device may further include a controller for controlling the order in which the generic and non-generic functional units are exposed to and enumerated on the host system. The controller may include a switch operable to switch on and off the generic and non-generic functional units thereby controlling the order in which these units are exposed to and enumerated on the host system.
