I think that would create a lot of unnecessary work for technicians - typing in exactly the printer to not touch - and a single typo wipes out the USB printer. A DB restore/snapshot restore for the FOG Server could also wipe out hundreds of USB printers. The thing is - USB printers are physically connected to the system. These printers can only belong to the connected system. FOG should not be touching these USB printers for this reason. Sometimes these USB printers are tediously installed manually. I can attest to this, working in a high school with 500 desktop computers and each teacher buying some different printer with their classroom budget, I had to individually setup each one of those desktop printers every single summer with each printer's own unique drivers (because the custodians ripped apart the whole building every summer to wax the floors, and we imaged every computer every summer). The threat of FOG completely destroying all that manual work with the USB printers is something to be taken very seriously. No way was I ever turning on \"Only assigned printers\" in FOG because it'd delete every USB printer I tediously installed manually throughout the building. The feature - as is - is **dangerous**. The other mode for FOG Printers is \"FOG Managed Printers\" which I used, but the problem with that is it leaves behind orphaned printers on the remote hosts each time a printer name is changed in FOG - and this caused significant confusion with the teachers, having printers on their system that didn't work. It caused delays in printing, extra service tickets with technicians.\r\n\r\nI'm not trying to be difficult. In fact, I don't even have skin in this game anymore, I've not used FOG at work for over two years. But lots of people still are, and I imagine lots of people are frustrated by the way fog handles printers. I am not saying I have the perfect answer, but it seems like a good step in the right direction is for FOG to not touch USB printers that are attached locally to a system."}}
