USBMonitor
USBMonitor is a launchAgent component for Pantum printers and multifunction devices. It runs in the background on macOS to monitor and manage USB connections to Pantum hardware, enabling the printer driver to detect when devices are plugged in or removed, and to maintain communication with the printer. This component is not installed or updated separately — it is bundled with and updated through the main Pantum printer driver software.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionUSBMonitor is a background helper component bundled with Pantum's printer driver software, not a standalone application. It cannot be updated independently. To ensure you have the latest version — including any Apple Silicon compatibility fixes — you must update the main Pantum printer driver on your Mac. Visit Pantum's support website, download the latest printer driver for your specific Pantum device model, and run the installer. The installer will automatically replace the USBMonitor component alongside the updated main driver. If you have not already done so, verify that your Pantum printer driver itself has a native Apple Silicon build, as this determines whether the USBMonitor helper will run natively as well. With Apple removing Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), ensuring both the driver and its helper components are native is important for long-term compatibility.
