HP Universal Printing PCL5 (v4.7)
NOTE: Maintenance Releases: Only Major.Minor version numbers display in the MODEL field,
which becomes the printer model name. For example, “HP Universal Printing PCL6 (v5.1)” displays in
the MODEL field for version 5.1.x of the HP UPD. If version 5.1.0 is installed followed by an
installation of version 5.1.1, all printers on the print server using driver version 5.1.0 would upgrade to
version 5.1.1.
After the installation of different driver versions, all installed drivers will use the same version of
unidrv.dll and pscript5.dll (the latest version).
Printer name matches driver name: By default, the printer name will match the driver name defined
in the *.inf file. For example, both the driver name and the printer name of the HP UPD are "HP
Universal Printing PCL6 (v5.1)". HP recommends administrator's change the printer's name to be
different than the installed driver name.
Identify the driver name for the HP UPD printer: Follow these steps to view the driver name for an
installed printer:
1. From a command prompt (Start-Run, type cmd, and press enter) type the following command:
control printers and then press Enter.
2. Within the Printers folder, select the installed driver, right mouse click, and then select either
Properties or Printer Properties.
