HP UPD - System Administrator's Guide HP UPD 5.6.5

19. How can I select the version specific driver in Windows 2008 R2 and Windows 7 when using INSTALL.EXE
and creating a new port during the installation?
When you use INSTALL.EXE to install HP UPD in traditional mode, you can select Add a local printer.
When selected, you can create a new port using the Standard TCP/IP Port, you can select Query the
printer and automatically select the driver to use in the screen titled Type the printer hostname or IP
address. By default this query option is enabled. In order to see the driver specific version you have to
disable the query option.
20. When I delete a printer that is using the HP UPD print driver, is the standard TCP/IP port also deleted?
This depends. On Windows XP and Windows 2003, only the printer is deleted. On Windows Vista,
Windows 7, Windows 2008, and Windows 2008 R2 the printer is deleted and the port associated with
the printer is deleted (providing the port is not in use by another printer).
21. The datestamp for hp upd *.CFG files (such as HPCPU118.CFG) is always 3/12/1990. Is this an error?
No, this is done on purpose in order to get predictable configuration settings in different environments.
22. In some applications it’s possible to select a different papersource per page in the document. Is this
supported with the HP UPD?
The HP UPD supports different tray numbers per page of the document and one papertype per
document.
23. After installing the HP UPD and creating a printerqueue which is printing to a monochrome product, the
Color tab is still visible in the properties of the printer queue (and not in printing preferences or printing
defaults). How can this Color tab get removed in the properties screen?
This behavior is controlled by the operating system, not by the HP UPD and cannot be changed by a
HP UPD setting.

Use this section to find answers to common questions regarding use of the HP UPD with HP MPA and Active
Directory.
1. What are managed printer lists and policies?
Managed Printer Lists (MPL) and Managed Print Policies (MPP) are features of HP Managed Printer
Administration (HP MPA) software which allows administrators to manage and control printing
environments.
2. Does HP MPA support products not found on the HP UPD Supported Device list?
The HP UPD can print to unsupported products, but the HP MPA will not provide managed print control
of products not found on the HP UPD supported printer list.
3. If I have the HP MPA and the HP UPD Active Directory Group Policy running simultaneously, which set of
policies take priority?
The HP UPD Active Directory Group Policy takes precedence over both HP MPA defined policies and
default settings.
4. How can I set up printer lists for each user?
Printer lists can be created within the HP MPA software tool, or by exporting printer lists from HP Web
Jetadmin into XML format.
