Package Target
Use this section to identify the name and location of the installation package.
Use the Save as button to enter the name and location for the output package by browsing or typing it
in. The utility will create the package in the temp directory and then move it to the final location.
Create Package
Use this section to initiate the package creation process.
Select the Create Package button when you have entered all the above information. This button will
be disabled until you have entered the required information. Once selected, the Cancel button and
Progress bar will be enabled.
To stop the package creation, select the Cancel button.
The executable will run silently, unless a user prompt was requested for a direct connect printer. If an
error is encountered during execution, an error dialog will appear. To suppress the error dialog, select
the Suppress all end user error messages checkbox.
If you selected the Pre-configure this driver checkbox, the driver configuration dialog will open when
you select the Create Package button. Once you have configured the driver, select OK to save the
new configuration settings and continue package creation. Selecting Cancel will cancel the entire
package creation process.
HP DDU V2.0.0.42 does not support the creation or deletion of Printing Shortcuts during driver
preconfiguration within the HP DDU tool. However, administrators can use the HP Driver
Configuration Utility first to create and delete unwanted shortcut names before running the HP DDU
for driver package creation. In this method, all custom shortcuts created in the HP DCU appear in the
HP DDU allowing further settings adjustment for each presented shortcut name.
