MISSISSAUGA,Ont.-Hewlett-Packard said that more than 2 million copies of its Universal Print Driver have been downloaded from hp.com.
The HP Universal Print Driver for Windows, which works with virtually all networked HP LaserJet printing devices, enables IT staff to focus on more strategic enterprise issues and projects, reduce the number of calls to help desks and improve productivity for those who print.
The self-updating driver provides both users and IT departments a single, intelligent “universal” print driver to manage. The driver automatically recognizes upgrades to HP devices, so IT professionals do not need to manually update drivers on each device on a network.
For business travelers, the HP Universal Print Driver eliminates the need to locate and download drivers for remote company offices since they are already able to print to most HP LaserJet printers, regardless of location.
“Issues related to printer drivers are daily time-sinks for IT professionals, but the HP Universal Print Driver eliminates these headaches by simplifying printing and reducing IT and help desk calls,” said Vince Ferraro, vice president of worldwide marketing, LaserJet Business, HP.
“As the industry’s only truly single universal print driver, the HP UPD allows customers to concentrate on their real business of printing valuable documents – not supporting and managing their printer fleets.”
