To view this as text: exiftool -devicesettingdescription -b FILE

Or you could pipe the output of this command to a file and look at the data with a hexdump program to explore it further.

To write this tag requires creating a user-defined Exif tag for ID 0xa40b.  See the sample config file for an example.

The Exif specification states that the string data for this tag should be encoded in UCS-2, but it is plain ASCII in all of the samples I have with this tag (most are from HP scanners).

Where you can watch a video how to do it?

I can not.

Try this:

exiftool -htmldump FILE > out.html

then open "out.html" with your web browser.  This will show a hex dump of all EXIF tags in the file.
