Non Essential Process
This windows process is listed as non-essential and may be slowing down your system. We recommend that you check whether the process should continue to run automatically or at system startup. Remember, if its running then it's probably consuming resources or using part of your systems processing power. See the additional information section below for more details.
Additional Information
Directly from HP: "This process has one purpose - detects if the device moves to a different port, and notifies other processes to look on the new port." For various HP all-in-one printer/scanner/copier devices.

Windows Process Information
A process is an instance of a computer program that is being sequentially executed. A computer program itself is just a passive collection of instructions, while a process is the actual execution of those instructions. Several processes may be associated with the same program, for example opening up two windows of the same program typically means two processes are being executed.
Task Manager
The task manager program can be used to display information about the processes and programs running on a computer, as well as the general status of the computer. It can also be used to terminate processes and programs, as well as change the processes' priority.
Task manager can be accessed on Microsoft Windows PC's by holding the 'ctrl' 'alt' and 'delete' buttons simultaneously. In Windows XP and beyond, the 'ctrl' 'shift' and 'esc' buttons also access the task manager.
