Strange asset naming for printers

[jah88]

On some of our Asset names for printers, it did not put the host name but instead put the model and ip address together. I cant seem to get it to change to the host name. I have provided an example below. I have also posted the DeviceTester.exe results from doing it on both of these printers.

Any idea of how to resolve this issue? Do I need to disable any specific protocols etc?

Hello,

It seems that part of the name is fetched from HTTP scanning and not from SNMP.
Try scanning it with other SNMP credentials or another community, it could be that not all the necessary information can be found now.
