HP Universal Print Driver (UPD)
Each HP Universal Print Driver (UPD) for Windows is a single driver that gives you instant access to virtually any HP LaserJet product, from any location, without downloading separate drivers. It is built on proven HP print driver technology and has been tested thoroughly and used with many software programs. It is a powerful solution that performs consistently over time.
The HP UPD communicates directly with each HP product, gathers configuration information, and then customizes the user interface to show the product’s unique, available features. It automatically enables features that are available for the product, such as two-sided printing and stapling, so you do not need to enable them manually.
When you download and install a UPD from the product support Web page (
www.hp.com/support/ljp3010
), there will be some variations in the installation process and results depending on the driver that you select.
From the support page, click on the Download Drivers and Software
link. After you select the printer model and operating system, there will be several selections on the download page. You can download drivers from the “Driver�? section and from the “Driver - Universal Print Driver�? section.
Drivers downloaded from the “Driver�? section are wrapped with the HP DIU (Driver Installation Utility) and produce a “named�? driver when installed. A named driver has the printer model number in the driver print queue name. These drivers always install in Traditional mode. The HP PCL 6 Print Driver is a product specific driver, and the PCL5 and postscript driver are UPDs but install as described.
Drivers downloaded from the “Driver-Universal Print Driver�? section includes the UPD installer. For these drivers, the driver print queue shows a non-product-specific name. When installing these drivers, you have a choice between Traditional or Dynamic mode as described below.
UPD installation modes
UPD installation modes
|
Traditional mode |
Use this mode if you are installing the driver from a CD for a single computer.
When installed with this mode, UPD operates like traditional printer drivers.
If you use this mode, you must install UPD separately for each printer.
|
|
Dynamic mode |
Use this mode if you are installing the driver for a mobile computer, so you can discover and print to HP products in any location.
Use this mode if you are installing UPD for a workgroup.
