HP LaserJet 4200 and 4300 printers - Software Technical Reference Manual

1
Not supported.
2
Bidirectional functionality is supported only with the client software from Novell. It is not supported with Microsoft
Client Service for NetWare.
3
Novell Directory Services.
4
Printer Status and Alerts is not installed when the share computer is running Terminal Server.
Bidirectional interface and connectivity
The following table lists the driver user interface (UI) controls bidirectional communication sets when the user clicks
Update Now or when Enterprise Auto-configure is initiated. To the right are the corresponding PML counterparts.
The Corresponding Object ID column shows the values that the driver .INF file inserts into the registry, as transformed
from the firmware OID number, such as: 2.8.2.1.10.1 A set of Object ID to printer management language (PML)
mappings appear in the registry. A component called NRA queries the Object IDs in the registry from the printer, and
sets the corresponding PML value to what the printer returns. The driver then parses these PML values to determine
the printer’s configuration. For example, when NRA asks the printer for the Object ID that corresponds to
hrMemorySize, the printer returns a value such as 6553610, and this value is stored in the hrMemorySize registry key.
The driver then reads this value, and sets the printer memory configuration to 64 MB.
Note
The printer model name is not tied to a UI control, but the driver uses the printer model name to verify
that it is communicating with the correct printer model.
Note
The default UI settings are based on the printer base bundle.
Note
The strings that are returned from firmware for the various paper source and destination options are
not included in this table.
