Serial number is specified in the USB Device Class Definition for Printing Devices. An index to the serial number string is returned in the device description. I don't believe it to be a required tag in the 1284 Device ID string, but believe some recent printers have included "SERN" or "SN" in the 1284 Device ID string as well.
