I agree. Then use something unique in the device like I said in a different message: device physical path, serial number, mac address, fs label, etc. But only use the physical path if that's your last resort, as it's the most unstable. This is the main reason the USB printer spec started specifying that all USB printers need to have a serial number. To help uniquely identify them. > You cannot avoid the issue I am afraid.
