I'm just in the process of adding all our network printers to SDP+ but I'm struggling to find something that I works how I want it.

All our network printers are in the same range (192.168.2.51-192.168.2.99) so I have added a scan range under Network Scan. If I then scan this range it picks up the printers and does one of two things...If the HOSTNAME of the Printer is 13 characters or less, then the printer is added using the hostname. If the hostname is longer than 13 characters (which a lot of ours are) then it'll just add the printer using it's IP address.

How does the scanning work? There doesn't seem to be a field for IP address (something I want to track). What does it use to scan with? Serial Number? If I add the printers manually, how does the scan know what printer is which?

It's confusing...
