Installing the Universal Print Driver

Depending on the needs of the individual administrator, the Universal Print Driver may be installed through the
Windows Add Printer Wizard or through the system administrator installation package available on the Lexmark Web
site.

Updating previous versions of the Universal Print Driver

The Universal Print Driver (UPD) version 2 is designed to work in parallel with previous versions of UPD. This gives the
administrators or end users the ability of having UPD version 2 coexist with previous versions. To upgrade to UPD
version 2, all previous versions should be uninstalled before installing the new version.

Note: The printer driver updates the status of all printer options. If bidirectional communication is not active or is
unavailable for the printer, then the printer driver cannot perform this operation and will display an error.

Using Travel Print

The Travel Print feature lets you search and select a network printer when printing or faxing from the host computer.
If you travel frequently and must regularly change printers, then you no longer need to install several print queues to
support printers at multiple locations.
When Travel Print is used, a printer selection dialog appears when you:
•
Send a print job to the printer driver from a Windows print dialog.
•
Access Printing Preferences from a Windows print dialog.
