HP Driver Deployment Utility. The HP Driver Deployment Utility (HP DDU) was created to simplify the deployment of print drivers onto a client computer. It is a simple utility that packages the print-driver files, and the code needed to deploy them, into two files: an .EXE file and a .CAB file. These files are run on the client computer to copy the print-driver files to the Windows driver store and, for network packages, to install the product. This utility is supported on Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, and Windows Vista operating systems.

To gain access to the HP DDU, insert the software CD into the CD-ROM drive, and then navigate to the Driver Deployment Utility folder.

For more information about the HP DDU, refer to {Xref Error! Target does not exist.}

For detailed information about gaining access to and installing these tools, see the HP Driver Configuration Support Guide at the following Web site and click on the Manuals link.

Continuous export

The term "continuous export" refers to the ability of the print driver to copy the latest print-driver settings back to the working copy of the preconfiguration file. Using this feature, the exported values can be transferred when a compatible version of the print driver is used to upgrade the print driver. For instance, if the orientation is set to Landscape for a driver originally installed in Windows XP, then the orientation setting automatically remains Landscape when the operating system is upgraded to Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows Server 2003, or Windows Server 2008. The continuous export feature functions transparently from the user's perspective and works only between print drivers of identical product models.

NOTE: Not all of the driver parameters can be exported; however, the exportable components are always the same as the components that can be preconfigured.
