Command line interface
Starting with HP UPD 4.0, administrators can script the Update Now process from a command line
for traditional mode installations of the HP UPD driver. This applies only to HP UPD traditional mode
installation. The files used and file location required for configuration entry point are different with
Printer Automatic Configuration release and therefore Microsoft platform UPD version specific.
