4. Using the Universal Print Driver Using a New Child Driver After updating UPD, you can essentially use the new child driver in the same way as you normally would. If you have created printer icons using Traditional Mode, however, then even if a new child driver for that printer is added or changed by the update, the icon will still call the old child driver. If you want to call a newly added child driver from a printer icon crated in Traditional Mode, then you must create the icon again by following the steps below. 1. From the Windows Printers folder, delete the Traditional Mode printer icon of the printer you want to update. 2. In the Windows Printers folder, right click on the "KONICA MINOLTA Universal PCL(PS)" icon, and select Print Setup. 3. The KONICA MINOLTA Universal Printer Driver Device Selector opens. 4. Create the printer icon mentioned in step 1 again. 5. Log off from the operating system, and then log in again. (You do not need to restart the operating system.) 4.1 Dynamic Mode and Traditional Mode KONICA MINOLTA Universal Printer Driver has two modes: Traditional Mode and Dynamic Mode. Each mode has a different purpose. Dynamic Mode Use this mode to start the UPD's Device Selector, and access the child driver for each of your devices from there. We recommend you use this mode if you want to search for nearby available devices, or if you want to select the device to use each time you print. Traditional Mode This mode is for when you have already created a printer icon using UPD's Device Selector, and then access the specific driver for your printer directly from this icon. Once you have created an icon, you can use it in exactly the same way as an ordinary printer driver. We recommend this mode if you always use the same printer, or similar situations. 26

Using a New Child Driver
After updating UPD, you can essentially use the new child driver in the same way as you
normally would. If you have created printer icons using Traditional Mode, however, then
even if a new child driver for that printer is added or changed by the update, the icon will
still call the old child driver. If you want to call a newly added child driver from a printer
icon crated in Traditional Mode, then you must create the icon again by following the
steps below.
1. From the Windows Printers folder, delete the Traditional Mode printer icon of the printer
you want to update.
2. In the Windows Printers folder, right click on the "KONICA MINOLTA Universal
PCL(PS)" icon, and select Print Setup.
3. The KONICA MINOLTA Universal Printer Driver Device Selector opens.
4. Create the printer icon mentioned in step 1 again.
5. Log off from the operating system, and then log in again. (You do not need to restart
the operating system.)
4.1 DYNAMIC MODE AND TRADITIONAL MODE
KONICA MINOLTA Universal Printer Driver has two modes: Traditional Mode and
Dynamic Mode. Each mode has a different purpose.
Dynamic Mode
Use this mode to start the UPD's Device Selector, and access the child driver for each
of your devices from there. We recommend you use this mode if you want to search for
nearby available devices, or if you want to select the device to use each time you print.
Traditional Mode
This mode is for when you have already created a printer icon using UPD's Device
Selector, and then access the speciļ¬c driver for your printer directly from this icon. Once
you have created an icon, you can use it in exactly the same way as an ordinary printer
driver. We recommend this mode if you always use the same printer, or similar situations.
