HP Driver Configuration

HP Driver Configuration is a software architecture and set of tools that permits HP printing-system software to be customized and distributed in managed corporate printing environments. Using HP Driver Configuration, information technology (IT) administrators in corporate and enterprise environments can preconfigure the printing and device defaults for HP print drivers before installing the drivers in the network environment.

HP Driver Configuration is most beneficial when configuring print drivers for multiple workstations or print servers for print queues that share the same configuration. Two types of features can be configured:

●Product settings

●Printing-preferences settings

The driver is configured to match the product hardware so that access to all of the product accessories through the driver is enabled correctly (for example, for duplexing units and additional input trays). Most driver-feature settings can also be configured.

HP Driver Configuration configures the driver to match the accessories that are installed on the product, or to match the settings that IT administrators make in the configuration (.CFG) file (for example, optional trays, total amount of memory, job-storage settings, or mopier settings).

The configuration process consists of three basic steps:

●Driver acquisition

●Driver configuration

●Driver installation and deployment

These steps can be accomplished in different ways, depending on the tool that is being used to define the configuration.

The driver configuration process is supported through the HP Driver Configuration Utility.

HP Driver Configuration Utility. The HP Driver Configuration Utility is a small, standalone, Windows-software program that the administrator can use to open the .CFG file that is associated with a particular driver and make modifications that are applied when that driver is installed on the target computer. It is intended for use in environments that have an established process for deploying drivers. This is the preconfiguration tool of choice to support any Novell or HP Print Server Appliance (PSA) and Point and Print environments. It is used in the way that any ordinary Windows software program is used.
