And You can manage printer ports in Windows by following these steps:

Note that you will need administrative privileges to manage printer ports. Also, be careful when removing or modifying ports, as this could affect the functionality of your printer.

FYI: Printer ports in Windows provide a way for a computer to communicate with a printer. When a printer is connected to a computer, the computer creates a printer port to facilitate the transfer of print jobs to the printer. The printer port is used by the operating system and printer driver software to transmit data to the printer, and it can be either a physical port, such as a USB or parallel port, or a virtual port, such as a TCP/IP port.

Printer ports are important because they allow printers to be shared across a network, enabling multiple users to print to the same printer. They also enable the use of print management tools, such as print servers and print spoolers, which can help to manage and optimize print jobs.
