HP universal print driver
The HP Universal Print Driver (UPD) is available for:
-
PCL5
Print driver name: HP Universal Printing PCL5
-
PCL6
Print driver name: HP Universal Printing PCL6
-
PostScript
Print driver name: HP Universal Printing PS
-
If possible, ALWAYS select the print driver name that includes a version number. This is to mitigate that Windows cannot differentiate between versions of the print driver unless the version is reflected in the print driver name.
-
Install the HP Universal Print Driver in Traditional mode.
Configuration
In Printix Administrator, you can add a new print driver configuration. The temporary printer's Printer properties dialog box will open automatically. Proceed to make the configuration:

After you select Update Now, the Printer properties dialog box closes automatically, preventing you from making additional changes. To make additional changes, you can modify the print driver configuration.
-
- Select Device Type and select Color if it is a color printer. Otherwise, select Monochrome.
- Select Apply.
- Optionally, open the Advanced tab and select Printing Defaults to configure per-printer defaults.
