hi, I can fully understand the confusion! on the tablet the logged in user actually is the username "user"

so you would use scp ... user@192.168.1.2...
or similar

you will have to install openssh server to invoke the ssh server on the tablet, or reverse the function and bring up a shell/xterm on tablet and

Code:
cd /home/user/.osso-abook
scp -pr "myuser@desktop:archive_dir/dir/.osso_abook/*" .
