hello!
i want to connect arduino mega to weighing,zebra printer and barcode scanner(weighing and zebra use rs232 and barcode use usb host shield). actually i want print the output from barcode and weighing.
i can connect from arduino to weighing or arduino to zebra printer or barcode to arduino or barcode to arduino to zebra printer)
but if i connect arduino to weighing,zebra printer and barcode, the output is nothing.
this is my code
#include <hid.h>
#include <hiduniversal.h>
#include <usbhub.h>
#include <Usb.h>
#include <hidboot.h>

what should i do if i want this hardware working? thank you
