Driver Autoconfiguration works in three ways: • In environments that do not support bidirectional communication, the driver automatically configures options based on the HP LaserJet 8150 printer bundle selected during the installation of the printing system software. For example, if the HP LaserJet 8150DN is selected, the driver automatically configures the duplexing unit. There is no communication between workstation and printer. Therefore, configuration is based solely on the definition of the printer bundle. Using the same example, if the HP LaserJet 8150DN is selected during installation, the duplexing unit is configured in the driver whether the unit is physically present or not. • In environments that support bidirectional communication, the workstation communicates with the printer, determines the physical configuration, and configures the driver accordingly. • If the configuration of the HP LaserJet 8150 printer changes after installation, the driver can be updated with the new configuration automatically in environments that support bidirectional communication. For example, if the base printer model is installed and a duplexing unit is added later, you can automatically configure the duplexing unit in the driver by clicking the Update Now button on the driver's Configure tab. The bidirectional communication software necessary for the second and third methods of Driver Autoconfiguration is included in a typical installation when installing a network printer in supported environments. The feature is also a selectable option for a custom installation. 46

Driver Autoconfiguration
The HP LaserJet 8150 PCL 6 and PCL 5e drivers for Windows offer a new Driver
Autoconfiguration feature. Driver Autoconfiguration works in three ways:
•
In environments that do not support bidirectional communication, the driver
automatically configures options based on the HP LaserJet 8150 printer bundle
selected during the installation of the printing system software. For example, if
the HP LaserJet 8150DN is selected, the driver automatically configures the
duplexing unit. There is no communication between workstation and printer.
Therefore, configuration is based solely on the definition of the printer bundle.
Using the same example, if the HP LaserJet 8150DN is selected during
installation, the duplexing unit is configured in the driver whether the unit is
physically present or not.
•
In environments that support bidirectional communication, the workstation
communicates with the printer, determines the physical configuration, and
configures the driver accordingly.
•
If the configuration of the HP LaserJet 8150 printer changes after installation, the
driver can be updated with the new configuration automatically in environments
that support bidirectional communication. For example, if the base printer model
is installed and a duplexing unit is added later, you can automatically configure
the duplexing unit in the driver by clicking the
Update Now
button on the driver°s
Configure
tab.
The bidirectional communication software necessary for the second and third methods of
Driver Autoconfiguration is included in a typical installation when installing a network
printer in supported environments. The feature is also a selectable option for a custom
installation.
