The cepswatch.exe process is an executable program file deployed into the system by the CEPS software, which stands for Cisco Enterprise Printing System and is classified as a Windows program developed by Cisco with a set of features for efficiently managing large numbers of printers that are connected to a single remote or local network. The cepswatch.exe process is specifically integrated into Windows network servers and client systems for assisting in the implementation of the embedded monitoring functionalities of the CEPS software into these server and client computers. The cepswatch.exe process is activated by the CEPS software, which means upon its initialization, the cepswatch.exe file continues to operate as a background process during system runtime, particularly whenever the CEPS software is actively running in the system.
