94+
connecting, then the administrator may need to install the corresponding drivers manually.

- Regular ink/toner based printers

- Receipt printers (Epson/Star)

- Barcode scanners

- Measurement devices (although some configuration of the measurement device settings is
102+
required) See this documentation: :doc:`../devices/measurement_tool`

110+
and install them on the Windows machine. Reconnect the device in question and Windows will find
