After a pre-configuration has been added for a driver to HP Web Jetadmin, whenever that driver is selected you will be asked to select the default or the pre-configured driver.

Steps for Pre-configuring a Driver

NOTE: Users who are not members of the local administrators group on the HP Web Jetadmin server host are not able to create driver pre-configuration settings. The Printing Preferences tab and the Device Settings tab are not displayed for those users not in the local administrators group.

1.In the left navigation pane, click Print Management at the bottom of the screen.

In the Print Management - Common Tasks task module, click Pre-configure driver. The Driver Pre- configuration wizard is started with the Select driver page displayed.

2.Select the driver and click Next. The Specify Configuration Options page is displayed.

3.Configure the driver settings and name the pre-configuration for the driver; notice that some might be locked in which cases you cannot adjust them. Click Next. The Confirm page is displayed.

4.Click Save Configuration. The Results page is displayed.

5.Click Done. The Print Management page is displayed.

The new pre-configuration and the default configuration now exist and can either be exported to an INF driver install file set or used in managing print queues.

INF install file sets for drivers can be uploaded into the HP Web Jetadmin host. These drivers can then be installed onto remote hosts (Edit Print Queue on page 264 or Create Print Queue on page 262).

All of the files in the directory with the INF file and all files in subdirectories of that directory are copied to the HP Web Jetadmin server as part of the upload process. Extra files not related to that driver should not be in that directory or its subdirectories.
