Starting with UPD 5.6.5, new options in install.exe add the ability to select USB mode for USB Plug and Play
with options to remove all versions of HP Universal Printing Driver from Windows driver store, or to add the
HP Universal Printing Driver to Windows driver store.
NOTE: These settings only impact the Windows driver store. No HP UPD printer is installed, no printer driver
is removed and no existing print queues are impacted. Only the HP UPD is only added to the driver store. No
non-HP UPD drivers are impacted.
