Connection to computer

Hi Again,
This is another “newbie” question. On the Control Panel of my SV06 Plus there are two connections. One for a thumb drive to load sliced projects into the printer. The other a USB Mini socket. The manual does not explain what this socket is used for.
Can this act as a cabled connection to the computer running slicer, eliminating the need to move the thumb drive back and forth from the computer to the printer?
Thanks
