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.
