HP Universal Print Driver (UPD)
The 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.
For more information, go to
UPD installation modes
Traditional mode
Dynamic mode
www.hp.com/go/upd.
Use this mode if you are installing the driver from a CD for a single computer.
●
When installed from the CD that comes with the product, UPD operates like
●
traditional printer drivers. It operates with a specific product.
If you use this mode, you must install UPD separately for each computer and
●
for each product.
To use this mode, download UPD from the Internet. See
●
upd.
Dynamic mode allows you to use a single driver installation, so you can
●
discover and print to HP products in any location.
Use this mode if you are installing UPD for a workgroup.

Table 5-4 IP addressing
Service name Description
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) For automatic IP address assignment. The product supports
IPv4 and IPv6. The DHCP server provides the product with an
IP address. Generally, no user intervention is required for the
product to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server.
BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) For automatic IP address assignment. The BOOTP server
provides the product with an IP address. Requires the
administrator to input a product's MAC hardware address on
the BOOTP server for the product to obtain an IP address from
that server.
Auto IP For automatic IP address assignment. If neither a DHCP server
nor a BOOTP server is present, the product uses this service to
generate a unique IP address.
Table 5-5 Security features
Service name Description
IPsec/Firewall Provides network-layer security on IPv4 and IPv6 networks. A
firewall provides simple control of IP traffic. IPsec provides
additional protection through authentication and encryption
protocols.
Kerberos Allows you to exchange private information across an open
network by assigning a unique key, called a ticket, to each
user who logs on to the network. The ticket is then embedded
in messages to identify the sender.
SNMP v3 Employs a user-based security model for SNMP v3, which
provides user authentication and data privacy through
encryption.
Access control list (ACL) Specifies the individual host systems, or networks of host
systems, that are allowed to access the HP Jetdirect print
server and the attached network product.
SSL/TLS Allows you to transmit private documents via the Internet and
guarantee privacy and data integrity between the client and
server applications.
IPsec batch configuration Provides network-layer security through the simple control of IP
traffic to and from the product. This protocol provides the
benefits of encryption and authentication and allows for
multiple configurations.

Understand paper use
This product supports a variety of paper and other print media in accordance with the guidelines in this
user guide. Paper or print media that does not meet these guidelines might cause poor print quality,
increased jams, and premature wear on the product.
For best results, use only HP-brand paper and print media designed for laser printers or multiuse. Do
not use paper or print media made for inkjet printers. Hewlett-Packard Company cannot recommend
the use of other brands of media because HP cannot control their quality.
It is possible for paper to meet all of the guidelines in this user guide and still not produce satisfactory
results. This might be the result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature and/or humidity levels,
or other variables over which Hewlett-Packard has no control.
CAUTION: Using paper or print media that does not meet Hewlett-Packard's specifications might
cause problems for the product, requiring repair. This repair is not covered by the Hewlett-Packard
warranty or service agreements.
Special paper guidelines
This product supports printing on special media. Use the following guidelines to obtain satisfactory
results. When using special paper or print media, be sure to set the type and size in the printer driver
to obtain the best results.
CAUTION: HP LaserJet products use fusers to bond dry toner particles to the paper in very precise
dots. HP laser paper is designed to withstand this extreme heat. Using inkjet paper could damage the
product.
