Driver configuration for Windows

The HP print drivers feature bidirectional communication technology which, in supported environments, provide automatic discovery and driver configuration for product accessories at the time of installation.
Some accessories that are automatically discovered and configured include the duplexing unit, optional paper trays, printer hard disk, and dual inline memory modules (DIMMs).

Driver autoconfiguration

Automatic discovery and driver configuration through bidirectional communication occurs in the following circumstances:
When a print driver is installed by using the installer
When using the Update Now feature for a driver that is already installed
However, as shown in the following table, driver autoconfiguration and Update Now are not available in Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, or Windows 7 operating systems over a direct connection when the product is installed by using the Add Printer Wizard.
Table 2-2 Automatic discovery and driver configuration through bidirectional communication
Connection type Add Printer Wizard install Common installer
Network Yes Yes
Direct connection No Yes
1
The table applies to Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, and Windows 7.

Bidirectional communication

In environments that support bidirectional communication, the computer communicates with the product during installation, determines the physical configuration, and then configures the driver accordingly.
Bidirectional communication is the capability of the product to respond to data inquiries from the computer and report information back, such as what type of print paper is available or what accessories are connected to the product. Bidirectional communication depends on the network operating system and on the type of connection that exists between the computer and the product. If the connection does not have this capability (that is, if it has no bidirectional mode), it can only accept commands from the host and cannot report information back to the host computer.

Enterprise AutoConfiguration

1
Enterprise AutoConfiguration (EAC) uses bidirectional communication to provide autoconfiguration functionality for installation of the print driver over a network, whether you use the installer on the printing-system software CD or the Add Printer Wizard to install the driver. Driver installation that includes EAC is configured with the same settings as the physical configuration of the product. Configuration occurs without user interaction.
18 Chapter 2 Windows software description ENWW
Page 37
If bidirectional-communication software has been installed previously, EAC is not activated, and the pre-existing bidirectional-communication software is used to configure the print driver.
If bidirectional communication software has not been installed, EAC installs bidirectional­communication software that allows it to communicate with the product and automatically match the print driver with the actual product configuration. EAC is activated during installation of the driver or whenever the Update Now feature is used.
If the product configuration changes after installation, the driver can be automatically updated with the new configuration in environments that support bidirectional communication by using the Update Now feature. For more information, see
Update Now on page 20.
The following tables show the availability of EAC for various operating systems and network environments that support bidirectional communication.

Update Now

If you have modified the configuration of the HP LaserJet Pro 100 Color MFP M175 product since installation, the driver can be automatically updated with the new configuration in environments that support bidirectional communication. Use the Update Now feature to automatically reflect the new configuration in the driver.
For example, if the product is installed and an optional paper-handling accessory is added later, use the Update Now feature to query the product and update the settings to match the new product configuration.
The feature automatically updates the registry and changes the configuration information that appears on the Device Settings tab.
NOTE: Depending on which settings were updated, the Update Now feature might change the
configuration information that displays on the print-driver tabs, instead of (or in addition to) changing the information on the Device Settings tab.

HP Driver Configuration

HP Driver Configuration is a software architecture and set of tools that permits HP printing-system software to be customized and distributed in managed corporate printing environments. Using HP Driver Configuration, information technology (IT) administrators in corporate and enterprise environments can preconfigure the printing and device defaults for HP printer drivers before installing the drivers in the network environment.
HP Driver Configuration is most beneficial when configuring print drivers for multiple workstations or print servers for print queues that share the same configuration. Two types of features can be configured:
Product settings
Printing-preferences settings
The driver is configured to match the product hardware so that access to all of the product accessories through the driver is enabled correctly (for example, for duplexing units and additional input trays). Most driver-feature settings can also be configured.
HP Driver Configuration configures the driver to match the accessories that are installed on the product, or to match the settings that IT administrators make in the configuration (.CFG) file (for example, optional trays, total amount of memory, job-storage settings, or mopier settings).
The configuration process consists of three basic steps:
Driver acquisition
Driver configuration
Driver installation and deployment
These steps can be accomplished in different ways, depending on the tool that is being used to define the configuration.
The driver configuration process is supported through three distinct tools. All three are designed with the same basic user-interface (UI) controls for interacting with the .CFG file, but are packaged
ENWW
Driver configuration for Windows
21
Page 40
differently, either to support established product installation workflows or to leave the deployment and installation of the driver entirely up to the user. The following tools support driver preconfiguration:
HP Driver Configuration Utility. The HP Driver Configuration Utility is a small, standalone,
Windows-software program that the administrator can use to open the .CFG file that is associated with a particular driver and make modifications that are applied when that driver is installed on the target computer. It is intended for use in environments that have an established process for deploying drivers. This is the preconfiguration tool of choice to support any Novell or HP Print Server Appliance (PSA) and Point and Print environments. It is used in the way that any ordinary Windows software program is used.
The HP Driver Configuration Utility is available at the following Web site:
www.hp.com/go/dcu
HP Web Jetadmin Driver Configuration Plugin. HP Web Jetadmin provides a queue-
creation program that can be used to create printer queues on Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, or Windows Server 2008. The HP Web Jetadmin Driver Configuration Plugin adds a number of screens to the existing queue-creation workflow from which the drivers that are being installed for the queues can be customized as part of the process. The plug-in is limited to Internet Explorer browsers. Netscape Navigator is not supported.
HP Web Jetadmin is supported by the following:
Windows XP (Professional only)
Windows Server 2003 (R2 only)
Windows Server 2008
Windows Vista (Business and Enterprise Editions)
The HP Web Jetadmin print management features are supported by the following:
Windows XP Professional (with Service Pack 2 or higher)
Windows Server 2003
HP Driver Deployment Utility. The HP Driver Deployment Utility (HP DDU) was created to
simplify the deployment of print drivers onto a client computer. It is a simple utility that packages the print-driver files, and the code needed to deploy them, into two files: an .EXE file and a .CAB file. These files are run on the client computer to copy the print-driver files to the Windows driver store and, for network packages, to install the product. This utility is supported on Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, and Windows Vista operating systems.
To gain access to the HP DDU, insert the software CD into the CD-ROM drive, and then navigate to the Driver Deployment Utility folder.
For more information about the HP DDU, refer to
For detailed information about gaining access to and installing these tools, see the HP Driver Configuration Support Guide at the following Web site and click on the Manuals link.

Page 41
Continuous export
The term "continuous export" refers to the ability of the print driver to copy the latest print-driver settings back to the working copy of the preconfiguration file. Using this feature, the exported values can be transferred when a compatible version of the print driver is used to upgrade the print driver. For instance, if the orientation is set to Landscape for a driver originally installed in Windows XP, then the orientation setting automatically remains Landscape when the operating system is upgraded to Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows Server 2003, or Windows Server 2008. The continuous export feature functions transparently from the user's perspective and works only between print drivers of identical product models.
NOTE: Not all of the driver parameters can be exported; however, the exportable components are
always the same as the components that can be preconfigured.

PANTONE color profiles

Most software programs that support the use of PANTONE colors for graphic objects include the PANTONE name in the postscript output along with the color values that are assigned to the object. Select a software program that uses a PANTONE palette in a CMYK workspace, and print with the HP PS Universal Print Driver in Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, or Windows 7.
When SWOP (Specifications Web Offset Printing) is selected as the CMYK Color setting, these CMYK values provide a good reproduction of the PANTONE 4C spot-color simulations.
Vector graphics, such as company logos that are created in PANTONE Application Palettes, can be imported into Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, or other Microsoft Office software programs. The color program must create an encapsulated postscript (.eps) file of the image that will be imported. Use the Insert file function to import the file into the Office document.

NOTE: Cutting and pasting from the clipboard does not work. These tasks do not preserve the
PANTONE name or the CMYK palette value.

Click the Next button to go to the next dialog box.
Click the Cancel button to cancel the creation or deletion of a scan destination.
Click the Help button to gain access to context-sensitive help for the dialog box.
The HP Scan software presents a series of dialog boxes that depend on the selections made in the HP Scan software dialog boxes.
Every time the HP Scan software is used, an HPPSCAN6.LOG file is generated in the current user's temporary directory. The HPPSCAN6.LOG file appends after every scan, and develops a log of operations that helps troubleshoot scanning problems. To gain access to the log file, follow these steps:
1. Click the Start button, and then click the Run... item.
2. Type %TEMP% in the Open: field, and then click the OK button.
3. Double-click the hppscan6.log file in the window that opens.
Selecting the third-party destination option saves the scanned image in a file of the specified file type. The HP Scan software then starts the specified software program by appending the filename after the software filename. Because the HP Scan software does not support automatic discovery of software programs, you must specify the correct software program and specify a file type that your program supports.

HP Driver Deployment Utility

The HP Driver Deployment Utility (HP DDU) was created to simplify the deployment of print drivers onto a client computer. It is a simple utility that packages the printer-driver files, and the code needed to deploy them, into 2 files: an .EXE file and a .CAB file. These files are run on the client computer to copy the printer-driver files to the Windows driver store, and for network packages, to install the product.
The HP DDU works with print drivers that can be installed by an .INF file. It is designed to work with print drivers that have their files contained in one directory structure. Because this utility is generic, it does not detect how specific print drivers are packaged. It packages all files in the directory (and subdirectories) where the print driver .INF file is found. The print driver must be expanded so that the HP DDU can process the .INF file. If you download an .EXE file with the print-driver files, you need to run it first to unpack all of the files. Then, run the HP DDU to package it for deployment on the client system.
HP DDU can be used to pre-configure a print driver for deployment. When the package is run on the client computer, the new configuration file is used to configure the print driver after it is installed. This does not break WHQL certification.
If the print driver was WHQL certified, and the print-driver files are organized within one directory structure, then HP DDU will not break WHQL certification. HP DDU packages all of the files found in the printer-driver directory structure without modifying them. If printer-driver pre-configuration is done, the new configuration file is used to configure the print driver after it is installed. This does not break WHQL certification.
NOTE: If you need the ability to configure unique settings for printer-driver deployment, the Universal
Print Driver installer may be a better choice as an install tool. The Universal Print Driver installer allows the configuration of settings from the command line.
The HP DDU can be used with the Universal Print Driver installer, but the Universal Print Driver command line will not be accessible. The HP DDU is designed to package and stage/install print drivers. Print-driver specific features, like those found in the Universal Print Driver installer, are specific to the Universal Print Driver installer and not supported by the HP DDU.
The HP DDU installer could be used with the Universal Print Drivers to deploy a direct connect driver in traditional mode or a network install in traditional mode.
NOTE: Administrative rights are necessary on the client system where the install is being performed.
For a direct connect, administrative rights are only required to run the .EXE package. The user can then connect the product without administrative rights. For a network connection, the .EXE package will copy files to the driver store, create the port, install the print driver and create the printer object.

Install and run the HP DDU
Install the HP DDU
Copy the files to the administrative computer. If using the self-extracting .EXE file, just copy it to the administrative computer, then double click – it will expand the files into the proper directory structure.
DDU does not require an installation program. All of the files are contained in the “Driver Deployment Utility” directory. DDU does not require any registry entries.
Run the HP DDU
1. Create the printer-driver package to deploy by opening the HP DDU application. This can be done
by double clicking HPDDU.EXE, which is found in the Driver Deployment Utility root directory. This utility packages the print driver and the code needed to stage/install the print driver into an .EXE file and a .CAB file. An informational .XML file is also created and can be used to identify the package selections.
2. Run the new printer-driver package (created in step 1) on the client computer. It can be copied to
the client computer and run by double clicking, or it can be run from a server by pointing to it and double clicking. The package can also be run in a batch file.
For a direct connect package, the HP DDU will silently copy the printer-driver files into the Windows driver store and exit. Prior to exiting, an optional dialog can be shown to prompt the user to connect their product after the files are copied. Upon completion of the package executable, when the user connects the product to the computer, the operating system will install the product using Plug and Play software.
NOTE: If the product is never connected to the computer, the product will not be installed.
For a network package, the HP DDU will silently copy the printer-driver files into the Windows driver store, and then install the product using the network information entered by the administrator.
Use the HP DDU
The HP DDU user interface is divided into the following sections:
Package Source describes the package type and printer-driver location that you want to create.
Package Target identifies the name and location of the installation package.
Create Package initiates the package creation process.

Page 82
Figure 2-35 Package Source
Driver Directory — Use the Select Driver button to enter the directory where the print driver
resides by browsing or typing the path. You should only have one printer-driver package in this directory because this utility will package all the files found in this directory (and sub directories) into the executable file. If you have downloaded a compressed printer-driver package, you must expand it before using this utility.
In some cases, you may have multiple print-driver .INF files in the directory (sometimes one is for color and another for monochrome products). In this case, an additional dialog will allow you to select which printer driver to package.
You will also get a warning if the directory is large. This is to help prevent packaging more than one print driver. You can choose to continue or not at this point.
Once the printer-driver directory is selected, and one print driver has been found, the printer-driver information is displayed below the directory selection box.

HP DDU Frequently Asked Questions
How do I use the HP DDU to deploy a direct connect driver with preconfiguration?
If you load multiple PDLs for one product, the operating system will determine which one satisfies the Plug and Play event. The operating system will create one printer object for that PDL.
1. Run HPDDU.EXE to start the package creation.
2. From Package Source section:
a. Select the print driver to package by browsing to the .INF file in the directory.
b. Select the Pre-configuration checkbox. This checkbox is enabled only for print drivers that
support preconfiguration.
c. Select the Silently preload the driver install type.
d. Select the Show a prompt to connect the printer check box if you want to prompt the
user after the files are copied.
3. From Package Target section:
Select the output name and location. Three files will be written here: an .EXE file, a .CAB file, and an .XML file with information about the package.
ENWW
HP Driver Deployment Utility
67
Page 86
4. From Create Package section:
a. If you want to suppress any error messages, select the Suppress all end user error
messages check box.
b. Click the Create Package button
5. Run the new .EXE file from the client computer. You must have administrator rights to run the .EXE
file because it will be copying files into the Windows driver store. Now the printer-driver files are on the system, and any user can connect the product to trigger the Plug and Play event.
NOTE: The printer object is not created until the product is connected.
NOTE: If you deploy multiple direct connect print drivers, with preconfiguration, and they all use a
pre-config file with the same name, the first one connected will be the only one configured properly. This might happen if you deploy the PCL6 and PCL5 print drivers for the same product. The reason is that the config file is copied to the \3 directory awaiting the product being connected. Each deployment will just copy over the same config file since they all use the same name. Once the product is connected, this config file gets consumed and deleted. Future Plug and Play events will not have the config file available.
How do I use the HP DDU to deploy a network product with preconfiguration?
NOTE: Before running the HP DDU, you must download the driver you want to package, expand the
driver, and place the driver in its own directory on the computer where the HP DDU will run.
1. Run HPDDU.EXE to create the package.
2. From Package Source section:
a. Select the print driver to package by browsing to the .INF file in the directory.
b. Select the Pre-configuration checkbox. This checkbox is enabled only for print drivers that
support preconfiguration.
c. Select the Silently create network port and install driver install type.
d. Click the Network Settings button to enter the network settings.
3. From Network Settings dialog:
a. From the Required Settings section, enter at least one way of identifying the product (IP
address, Hardware address, or Hostname).
b. Make any changes to the Additional Settings section (port name, product name, default
printer, sharing and share name). You can leave the default settings if you don’t need to make changes.
4. From Package Target section:
Select the output name and location. Three files will be written here: an .EXE file, a .CAB file and an .XML file with information about the package.
68 Chapter 2 Windows software description ENWW
Page 87
5. From Create Package section:
a. If you want to suppress any error messages, select the Suppress all end user error
messages checkbox.
b. Click the Create Package button.
c. The configuration dialog will open and allow you to set configuration details for this print
driver. After accepting the configuration changes, the package will be created.
6. Run the new .EXE file from the client computer. You must have administrator rights to run the .EXE
file because it will be copying files into the Windows driver store. A port and printer object will be created with the information provided above.
Common Problems
I get a warning when I select the print driver.
If there are too many files in the driver directory, or the directory is really large, a warning appears so that the user doesn’t accidentally package up something they didn’t intend to (like the root directory). Some print drivers are really large, and you can choose to ignore this warning and continue.
To minimize package size, each print driver should be in it’s own directory. This is usually the default behavior when you expand a print driver.
I get an error when I try to open the “Network Settings” dialog.
You need to first select a print driver before opening the “Network Settings” dialog. This populates the product name field based on the printer-driver name.
The Create Package button is not enabled.
This button will not be enabled until you have:
1. Selected the print driver.
2. If network connect – filled out one of the required network settings.
3. Selected the Save as name and directory.
How do I exit the HP DDU?
Use the Windows close button in the upper corner.
The Network Settings dialog keeps displaying an error, and I just want to close the program.
If you do not want to save settings, or change your mind and don’t want a network install, you need to close the network settings dialog with the Windows close button in the upper corner. Using the OK button causes the HP DDU to try to validate the settings, and that is what is causing an error.
What if the user connects the printer before the HP DDU package is run?
ENWW
If the user connects the product, but then cancels the Plug and Play event before it finishes, this creates an incomplete Plug and Play event. After copying the printer-driver files to the Windows driver store, the HP DDU code will cleanup incomplete Plug and Play events for products supported by this print

driver. Then it will refresh the bus, causing the operating system to Plug and Play the product (installing the print driver and creating the printer object.)
How do I uninstall HP DDU?
Delete all the files in the root HP DDU directory.
NOTE: No registry changes have been made with this utility.

Point-and-Print installation for Windows

Use the following information to install a printer driver by using the Microsoft Point-and-Print feature when you do not connect directly to the product on the network.
78 Chapter 3 Install Windows printing-system components ENWW
Page 97
Point-and-Print is a Microsoft term that describes a two-step printer driver installation process. The first step is to install a shared printer driver on a network print server. The second step is to "point" to the print server from a network client so that the client can use the printer driver.
This section outlines the procedures for installing printer drivers by using Point-and-Print. If these procedures are not successful, contact Microsoft. HP provides printer drivers that are compatible with the Point-and-Print feature, but this is a function of the Windows operating systems, not of HP printer drivers.
Administrator privileges are necessary to install the printer driver.
In a homogenous operating system environment (one in which all of the clients and servers are running in the same operating system), the same printer driver version that is vended from the server to the clients in a Point-and-Print environment also runs and controls the print queue configuration on the server. However, in a mixed operating system environment (one in which servers and clients might run on different operating systems), conflicts can occur when client computers run a version of the printer driver that is different from the one on the print server.
In an effort to increase operating system stability, Microsoft determined that, starting with Windows 2000 and continuing with all future operating systems, printer drivers would run as user-mode processes. User-mode drivers run in a protected part of the operating system, as do all of the normal end-user processes and software programs. A user-mode printer driver that functions incorrectly can terminate (or “crash”) only the process in which it is running—not the whole operating system. Because access to critical system resources is restricted, overall operating system stability is increased.
