4 HP host based print driver for Windows

Introduction

This chapter describes the features of the HP LaserJet Professional M1130/M1210 MFP Series Host based Print Driver for Windows XP (32-bit and 64-bit), Windows Server 2003 (32-bit and 64-bit), Windows Vista (32-bit and 64-bit), Windows Server 2008 (32-bit and 64-bit), and Windows 7 (32-bit and 64-bit),.

You can control print jobs from several places:

The product control panel

The software program print dialog box

The driver user interface

Generally, for features that are duplicated in more than one location (for instance, you can select the paper input tray from any of them), settings that are established in the software program take precedence over print-driver settings. Print-driver settings, in turn, override product control-panel settings.

When you install the printing-system software in Microsoft Windows XP, Microsoft

Windows Server 2003, Microsoft Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, or Windows 7, the HP Host based Print Driver is the recommended driver and installs by default from the product firmware or CD Browser.
