Block or unblock monitoring of USB printers by serial number

The monitoring filter allows you to specify which serial numbers you want to block the monitoring of printers so you can determine which services will not monitor the device.

  • Block filter by serial number: will block monitoring of the printer that has the serial number entered

The monitoring filter can be set up in two ways:

  • By service, allowing several printers to be blocked at the same time

  • By printer, allowing you to block the services that monitor that printer

Who can use this feature
