Printers must be connected via USB to the computer running the Hardware Auditor. The printer component will usually retrieve the Manufacturer, Model, Serial Number and Printer Technology. On many HP models, the Hardware Auditor will also be able to retrieve the page counter and the toner level. A test page can also be sent to the printer just by clicking on a button.

This component of the Hardware Auditor allows the auditing and secure erasing of SATA drives (both magnetic and SSDs) connected to the motherboard of a computer or mounted on a dockstation with an eSATA interface. The drives can be hot swapped.

All types of USB devices can be audited by using this component, just by connecting them to the computer running the Hardware Auditor. All the information present on the device can be retrieved, usually Device Type, Manufacturer, Model and Serial Number.
