Manage Print Driver exclusion list

This policy setting controls the print driver exclusion list. The exclusion list allows an administrator to curate a list of printer drivers that are not allowed to be installed on the system.

This checks outranks the signature check and allows drivers that have a valid signature level for the Print Driver signature validation policy to be excluded.

Entries in the exclusion list consist of a SHA256 hash (or SHA1 hash for Win7) of the INF file and/or main driver DLL file of the driver and the name of the file.

If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, the registry key and values associated with this policy setting will be deleted, if currently set to a value.
