    Change Scanner Name.


    I have an old Hewlett-Packard HP ScanJet G2710 Scanner. I installed it and it works fine, EXCEPT, the name shown in Control Panel => Devices & Printers is hp scanjet. I have thoroughly looked through the Registry and I can NOT find the entry hp scanjet. I would like it to show as HP ScanJet G2710. I have even looked at the installation files that I used to install it . . . DPInst - XML Document hpusbscn.sys - System File hpxp3800 - Setup Information . . . and they appear to have the FULL correct Model Name, which is what I think needs changing somehow. Here is an Exported REG File . . . Code: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Hewlett-Packard] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Hewlett-Packard\DigitalImaging] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Hewlett-Packard\DigitalImaging\HP Scanjet G2710] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Hewlett-Packard\DigitalImaging\HP Scanjet G2710\DeviceInstances] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Hewlett-Packard\DigitalImaging\HP Scanjet G2710\DeviceInstances\CN78EA52QS0530] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Hewlett-Packard\DigitalImaging\HP Scanjet G2710\DeviceInstances\CN78EA52QS0530\Functions] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Hewlett-Packard\DigitalImaging\HP Scanjet G2710\DeviceInstances\CN78EA52QS0530\Functions\Scan] "ImagingClassIndex"="0000" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Hewlett-Packard\DigitalImaging\HP Scanjet G2710\DeviceInstances\CN78EA52QS0530\Strings] "FriendlyName"="0,HP Scanjet G2710" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Hewlett-Packard\hpg] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Hewlett-Packard\hpg\c32] "hpg_PNPFinishedEvent_99"="" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Hewlett-Packard\hpg\c32\hpg] "_PnPFinishedEvent"="1" "hpg3800"="1" . . . and as you see, it has the correct HP ScanJet G2710, so it is the Model Label [ Name ] that needs to be changed in Devices. Thanks in advance.

    :)

    name changes??

    If you desire a name change please do the following:

    • Ask yourself if you really need a name change.
    • Make sure you have a good reason.
    • Know what you want your new name to be before you request a name change.
    • Send Urlyin a PM containing a decent explanation of your reason as well as your desired name.
