Method 1: Windows client/server: Use Add Printer wizard
Follow these steps to install the HP UPD in Traditional mode with the Windows Add Printer Wizard.
NOTE: The Windows Add Printer Wizard does not provide any custom options. If you install the HP UPD by
using this method, the driver installs so that the user has common printing functionality.
1. From the Control Panel, navigate to the Printers folder.
2. Select Add a Printer.
NOTE: The steps listed here are for Windows 7. The screens of the wizard may vary slightly between
operating systems. For example, in Windows 8 and Server 2012, the first dialog searches for the printer.
Select The printer that I want isn't listed to move to the next screen. On the next screen, select Add a
printer using a TCP/IP address or hostname and then click Next.
3. Select Add a local printer.
NOTE: If you are using an existing port, or if you are specifying the Port Name instead of using the
default, make sure that the name you use does not contain the colon ‘:’ character. This character is not
allowed, and will cause configuration and status communication problems with the printer.
4. Select Create a new port, and then select Standard TCP/IP Port. Click Next.
5. The Add Standard TCP/IP Printer Port Wizard opens. Click Next.
NOTE: Make sure to deselect Query the printer and automatically select a driver.
6. The Add Port dialog box opens. In the Host Name or IP Address field, type the DNS or WINS host name
or IP Address (un-check Auto Search in Server 2008). Click the Next button.
NOTE: If the DNS host name is used for the port, click the Always print to product, even if its ID
address changes check box.
