HP Driver Deployment Utility The HP Driver Deployment Utility (DDU) was created to simplify the deployment of printer drivers onto a client computer. It is a simple utility that packages the printer-driver files, and the code needed to deploy them, into 2 files: an .EXE file and a .CAB file. These files are run on the client computer to copy the printer-driver files to the Windows driver store, and for network packages, to install the product.
Install and run the DDU Install the DDU Copy the files to the administrative computer. If using the self-extracting .EXE file, just copy it to the administrative computer, then double click – it will expand the files into the proper directory structure. DDU does not require an installation program. All of the files are contained in the “Driver Deployment Utility” directory. DDU does not require any registry entries. Run the DDU 1. Create the printer-driver package to deploy by opening the DDU application.
Figure 2-29 Package Source Driver Directory—Use the Select Driver button to enter the directory where the printer driver resides by browsing or typing it in. You should only have one printer-driver package in this directory because this utility will package all the files found in this directory (and sub directories) into the executable file. If you have downloaded a compressed printer-driver package, you must expand it before using this utility. In some cases, you may have multiple printer driver .
Install Type—Silently preload the driver is the option to select for users that will be using a direct connection, like a USB cable. A future Plug and Play event will be necessary to install the printer driver, but all the files will be installed in the Windows driver store by this package for future use. By default the executable file runs silently. If you would like to prompt the end user to connect the product at the end of the install, select the Show a prompt to connect the printer checkbox.
administrator is responsible for identifying the product using either the correct IP address, the Hardware address, or the Hostname. ● IP Address — enter the IPv4 or IPv6 address of the product. ● Hardware Address — enter the hardware address of the product. ● Hostname — enter the hostname of the product. The following network settings are additional. You may accept the default values pre-entered or change any of them. ● Port Name: This is the network port name that will be created.
Figure 2-31 DDU Driver Configuration settings DDU Frequently Asked Questions How do I use the DDU to deploy a direct connect driver with preconfiguration? If you load multiple PDLs for one product, the operating system will determine which one satisfies the Plug and Play event. The operating system will create one printer object for that PDL. 1. Run HPDDU.EXE to start the package creation. 2. From Package Source section: 3. a. Select the printer driver to package by browsing to the .
4. 5. From Create Package section: a. If you want to suppress any error messages, select the Suppress all end user error messages checkbox. b. Click the Create Package button Run the new .EXE file from the client computer. You must have administrator rights to run the .EXE file because it will be copying files into the Windows driver store. Now the printer-driver files are on the system, and any user can connect the product to trigger the Plug and Play event.
5. 6. From Create Package section: a. If you want to suppress any error messages, select the Suppress all end user error messages checkbox. b. Click the Create Package button. c. The configuration dialog will open and allow you to set configuration details for this printer driver. After accepting the configuration changes, the package will be created. Run the new .EXE file from the client computer. You must have administrator rights to run the .
Delete all the files in the root DDU directory. NOTE: No registry changes have been made with this utility.

Go to the HP Web site and download the latest firmware to the computer. 3.
host computer that is sending the update and the I/O method (parallel or network). The reinitialization time depends on the specific hardware configuration of the product, such as the number of EIO devices installed, the presence of external paper-handling devices, and the amount of memory that is installed. Finally, any print jobs that are ahead of the RFU job in the queue are printed before the update is processed. Use one of the methods described in this manual to update the product firmware.
Three messages appear during a normal update process; a fourth (RESEND UPGRADE) appears only if the update process does not succeed. Table 7-3 Update messages Printer message Explanation RECEIVING UPGRADE This message appears from the time the product recognizes the beginning of an .RFU update until the time the product has verified the validity and integrity of the .RFU update.
The custom color-profile .RFU tiles that are available include: ● A simulation of the color settings for the HP LaserJet 4650 product: *clj4650_*.RFU ● A simulation of the color settings for the HP LaserJet 9500 product: *clj9500_*.RFU ● A remote-firmware-update file that resets your product to its original state: *reset_*.
