  • 1.  Can't find Device ID of USB printer.

    Posted Jan 25, 2013 03:37 PM

    We have some people with Lexmark USB printers that are being blockd by our Device Control Policy.

    I want to exclude some Lexmark USB printers (like Lexmark x260d) but I can't see this in the Device Manager or in the DevViewer utilitiy.

    So how can I exlude it from blocking in my SEP 12.1 environment If I can't see it?

    What is showing in the Control log?

    See the option outlined for excluding in this KB article:
