1Bidirectional functionality is supported only with the client software from Novell. It is not supported with Microsoft Client Service for NetWare.

Update Now

If you have modified the configuration of the product since installation, the driver can be automatically updated with the new configuration in environments that support bidirectional communication. Use the Update Now feature to automatically reflect the new configuration in the driver.

For example, if the product is installed and an optional paper-handling accessory is added later, use the Update Now feature to query the product and update the settings to match the new product configuration.

The feature automatically updates the registry and changes the configuration information that appears on the Device Settings tab.

NOTE: Depending on which settings were updated, the Update Now feature might change the configuration information that displays on the print-driver tabs, instead of (or in addition to) changing the information on the Device Settings tab.

NOTE: The Update Now feature is not supported in environments where shared Windows® XP clients are connected to Windows® XP hosts.

To activate the Update Now feature, follow these steps:

1.Depending on your operating system, click the Start button and then do one of the following to find the list of installed printers:

●Click Devices and Printers or Printers and Faxes

●Click Control Panel and then click Printers, or first click Hardware and Sound, and then click Printers

●Click Settings, and then click Printers or Printers and Faxes

2.Right-click the product name.
