WSD(Web Services on Devices)
WSD is supported on Windows Vista by default.
It is the protocol to control devices via Web service.
The major features are:
1. Printer driver auto-installation
Can install a printer driver by getting the device ID through device search on network using
Vista's standard tool (NetworkExplore/AddPrinterWizard).
2. End job notification
When the device receives a print job, it issues the event notification upon completing paper
delivery. Vista can detect End job with this notification so that Canon utility is no longer
needed.
3. Auto-update of device configuration information
The driver collects information from Vista and the device when started. This enables to
update the driver-managed device configuration information automatically.
