I repost this issue, hoping on some feedback.

I'm using GLPI 0.84.8 with FI 0.84+3.5, and agents 2.3.15 on windows
(win7 64bit mostly).

I've a set of Samsung (ML-2160) and HP (LaserJet Professional P1102)
that i've added some year/month ago by hand on GLPI, with toner
cartdriges and some many info that i can't lost.


HP printers expose to windows USB subsystem a different S/N from what
printer on label, so i was forced to change S/N in GLPI to match the
''internal'' one. Done.
Samsung printers, instead, have the exact same S/N seen by windows and
on label.


Considering the samsung case easy, i've tried to match the S/N (eg
Z6RMB8GD6E00MLT) with the FI 'equipment import and link rule' using the
bottom 'test rules', writing S/N and selecting 'printers'.

The result is:

	Rule results
	Validation	Yes
	Action type	Link
	Link		sml2160-4

and 'sml2160-4' is exactly my ''manually inserted'' printer; but when
the client run EVERY TIME a new printer name 'Samsung ML-2160 Series'
and S/N Z6RMB8GD6E00MLT get added.


If i look at 'import information' for the related PC i get:

printer	0	
	name		Samsung ML-2160 Series
	serial		Z6RMB8GD6E00MLT
	have_usb	1

and seems rather normal to me.


What i'm missing? How can i debug this issue? Thanks.
