Point-and-Print installation
Use the following information to install a printer driver by using the Microsoft Point-and-Print feature
when you do not connect directly to the product on the network.
Point-and-Print is a Microsoft term that describes a two-step printer driver installation process. The
first step is to install a shared printer driver on a network print server. The second step is to "point" to
the print server from a network client so that the client can use the printer driver.
HP provides printer drivers that are compatible with the Point-and-Print feature, but this is a function
of the Windows operating systems,
not
of HP printer drivers.
Administrator privileges are necessary to install the printer driver.
In a homogenous operating system environment (one in which all of the clients and servers are
running in the same operating system), the same printer driver version that is vended from the server
to the clients in a Point-and-Print environment also runs and controls the print queue configuration on
the server. However, in a mixed operating system environment (one in which servers and clients
might run on different operating systems), conflicts can occur when client computers run a version of
the printer driver that is different from the one on the print server.
In an effort to increase operating system stability, Microsoft determined that, starting with Windows
2000 and continuing with all future operating systems, printer drivers would run as
user
-mode
processes. User-mode drivers run in a protected part of the operating system, as do all of the normal
end-user processes and software programs. A user-mode printer driver that functions incorrectly can
terminate (or “crash”) only the process in which it is running—not the whole operating system.
Because access to critical system resources is restricted, overall operating system stability is
increased.
