Process Flow for HP UPD management with HP MPA
1. Administrator installs and configures HP MPA User Groups, Policies, and Printer Lists.
2. To enable HP MPA policy management, the HP UPD is installed or upgraded using INSTALL.EXE with one
of the following switches:
●
/gempa - Installs the HP UPD and enables policy management for the HP MPA server named
“managed-Print”.
●
/policy”MPAservername”–Enables the HP UPD to be managed by HP MPA and allows the
administrator to enter the name of the server running HP MPA.
●
/gpolicy”servername” – Globally enables policy management for all users who log onto a PC and
uses the HP MPA server defined in the servername field.
Configure the HP UPD default settings and/or print policy using
Group Policy Objects in Active Directory
Like HP MPA settings, the changes made within Group Policy Objects control the global HP UPD user
capabilities. Available for download at
www.hp.com/go/upd, an HP UPD Administrative Template can be
added to create a Group Policy Object to manage the user HP UPD capabilities. The settings apply to any
queue that uses the HP UPD. Care should be taken when locking configuration settings as the user is unable
to change a locked setting. As an example, if duplex is enabled and locked, the user will be unable to override
this to print transparencies.
The HP UPD Administrator Template is included with the HP Printer Administrators Resource Kit (HP PARK).
To download the HP PARK, go to
www.hp.com/go/upd and click Download software. Click a print driver,
verify your language, and then click your operating system. From the table that lists the HP Printer
Administrators Resource Kit, click Download.
The HP PARK is a collection of tools, scripts and documentation to help print administrators install, deploy,
configure and manage the HP Universal Print Driver. For more information on the HP PARK in this document,
see
HP Print Administrator's Resource Kit (PARK) on page 203.
NOTE: See Manage the HP UPD with Active Directory Group Policy for detailed information on installing and
using the Active Directory template.
The following are typical settings available for preconfiguration and are located in the Default Print Settings
section of the HP UPD AD Admin Templates:
