Block or unblock monitoring of USB printers by serial number
Monitoring blocking allows you to prevent the service from monitoring certain USB printers based on their serial number.
Block by serial number: monitoring of the printer associated with the serial number will be blocked.
Blocking can be performed in two ways:
By service, to block multiple serial numbers at the same time;
By printer, to block multiple services that monitor a serial number.
