If the printer is a network printer, Windows doesn't magically know information about it. So first, you need to define exactly what you mean by 'printer' and then you need to go do some investigation on how.you. can gather this info because neither Windows or ConfigMgr know how to this for any network connected devices or printers even - why. Hello everyone, First, I'd like to know if the serial number of a printer exists 'in' the hardware (like it does with a hard disk: this information is available in WMI in the Win32DiskDrive table, the field SerialNumber ) or it's just a number placed on the ticket stuck on the printer? Serial Number: systemserialnumber UUID: uuidserial Serial Number: baseboardserial Serial Number: chassisserial Windows. For Win32 WMI classes, the value on the left is the name by which it is stored in the Serial Number cmdbserialnumber table. The value on the right is the WMI value. I look for a WMI query to get this informations. But I get only: WMI Win32SerialPort COM1 RS232 Serial Port COM2 RS232 Serial Port or WMI MSSerialPortName COM1 ACPI PNP0501 10 COM2 ACPI PNP0501 20 COM4 FTDIBUS VID0403+PID6001+A3000zmHA 00000 what can I do to get all virtual ports? I don't believe you can get a printer's serial number from Windows. Windows just has drivers installed. The serial number is part of the printer's hardware. You certainly can't pull any info about a printer from a computer's BIOS.
-->The Win32_PrinterDriverWMI class represents the drivers for a Win32_Printer instance.
The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all of the inherited properties, but excludes methods. For reference information about methods, see the table of methods in this topic.

Properties
The Win32_PrinterDriver class has these properties.
Caption
Data type: string
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: MaxLen (64), DisplayName ('Caption')
Short description of the object—a one-line string.
This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.
ConfigFile
Data type: string
Access type: Read-only
Configuration file for this printer driver.
Example: 'pscrptui.dll'
CreationClassName
Data type: string
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: CIM_Key, DisplayName ('Class Name')
Name of the class or the subclass used in the creation of an instance. When used with the other key properties of this class, this property allows all instances of this class and its subclasses to be uniquely identified.
This property is inherited from CIM_Service.
DataFile
Data type: string
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence (CIM_DataFile.FileName)
Data file for this printer driver.
Example: 'qms810.ppd'
DefaultDataType
Data type: string
Access type: Read-only
Default data type for this printer driver.
Example: 'EMF'
DependentFiles
Data type: string array
Access type: Read-only
Array of dependent files for this printer driver.
Description
Data type: string
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: DisplayName ('Description')
Comment that describes the link.
This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.
DriverPath
Data type: string
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence (CIM_DataFile.Path)
Path for this printer driver.
Example: 'C:driverspscript.dll'
FilePath
Data type: string
Access type: Read/write
Path to the INF file being used.
Example: 'c:tempdriver'
HelpFile
Data type: string
Access type: Read-only
Help file for this printer driver.
Example: 'pscrptui.hlp'
InfName
Data type: string
Access type: Read/write
Name of the INF file being used. The default is to use an operating system provided printer INF file. A different file name is used if the driver is provided directly by the manufacturer of the printer and not the operating system.
InstallDate
Data type: datetime
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: MappingStrings ('MIF.DMTF|ComponentID|001.5'), DisplayName ('Install Date')
Date and time the object is installed. This property does not require a value to indicate that the object is installed.
This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.
MonitorName
Data type: string
Access type: Read-only
Wmi Printer Serial Number Search
Name of the monitor for this printer driver.
Example: 'PJL monitor'
Name
Data type: string
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: Key
Driver name for this printer. This is a compound key composed of the Name, Version, and SupportedPlatform values.
This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement and overrides the Name definition in that class.
OEMUrl
Data type: string
Access type: Read-only
World Wide Web (WWW) link to the printer manufacturer's website. Note that this property is not populated when the Win32.inf file is used, and is only applicable for drivers provided directly from the manufacturer.
Started
Data type: boolean
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: DisplayName ('Started')
If TRUE, the service is started. If FALSE, the service is stopped.
This property is inherited from CIM_Service.
StartMode
Data type: string
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: DisplayName ('Start Mode')
Start mode of the service is automatically started by an operating system, or only started when requested.
This property is inherited from CIM_Service.
The following are possible values:
- 'Automatic'
- 'Manual'
Automatic ('Automatic')
Manual ('Manual')
Status
Data type: string
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: MaxLen (10), DisplayName ('Status')
Current status of the object. Various operational and nonoperational statuses can be defined. Operational statuses include: 'OK', 'Degraded', and 'Pred Fail' (an element, such as a SMART-enabled hard disk drive, may be functioning properly but predicting a failure in the near future). Nonoperational statuses include: 'Error', 'Starting', 'Stopping', and 'Service'. The latter, 'Service', can apply during mirror-resilvering of a disk, reload of a user permissions list, or other administrative work. Not all such work is online, yet the managed element is neither 'OK' nor in one of the other states.
This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

Remarks
The Win32_PrinterDriver class is derived from CIM_Service which derives from CIM_LogicalElement.
Users can uninstall a printer driver by deleting a corresponding instance of this class. To do so, the calling process must have the SeLoadDriverPrivilege privilege set to delete an instance of this class.
