Lexmark Surge Protector Universal Print Driver Version 2.0 White Paper - Page 21

Installing the Universal Print Driver 21 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 print driver from a Windows print dialog. • Access Printing Preferences from a Windows print dialog. • Access either Printing Preferences or Printer Properties from the print driver. From the printer selection dialog box, you can designate up to 10 frequently used printers in the Favorites tab. You can also search for printers in the Search tab using the printer host name or IP address, or by searching a subnet. The search results display important printer information, such as the printer status, IP address, and color and two‑sided printing capabilities. You can also access the embedded Web page for a selected printer to view more detailed printer information and configuration options. Notes: • You must have administrator rights to be able to install and enable Travel Print. To install, run the Travel Print installation package or the Universal Print Driver system administrator installation package. For information on obtaining a copy of the installation packages, visit our Web site. • Travel Print is not intended for server‑based printing. The print driver and Travel Print should be installed locally on host computers. • If you want Travel Print to update the printer model and configuration options, then enable the "Update Configuration from Printer" feature.
