What is hwInventoryDescription?
Gives a human-readable description of this hardware item, shown in whatever language deviceMibLocalization selects, and left blank if unknown. An admin reads this to get a friendly name for a hardware row, e.g. '550-Sheet Tray 2', without having to decode the numeric hwInventoryType value.
