HP DDU Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use the HP 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:

a.Select the print driver to package by browsing to the .INF file in the directory.

b.Select the Pre-configurationcheckbox. This checkbox is enabled only for print drivers that support preconfiguration.

c.Select the Silently preload the driver install type.

d.Select the Show a prompt to connect the printer checkbox if you want to prompt the user after the files are copied.

3.From Package Target section:

Select the output name and location. Three files will be written here: an .EXE file, a .CAB file, and an .XML file with information about the package.
