I admit that WMI is not my strong suit, but using the WMI object browser on my machine, I find that Win32_SystemDevices contains a key called Win32_USBHub which contains DeviceID entries for all of the USB devices on my computer. I have never attempted it, but I suspect that's all the OP would need. And actually, since I *think* he said he was working with a printer, he may be able to look at the Win32_Printer collection instead. -- Tim Roberts, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ Python-win32 mailing list Python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
