install.exe /m no longer requires driver name
When using install.exe /m, the driver name string is no longer required on the command line
when using it to install a specific HP UPD version.
install.exe /s can specify virtual node (cluster install)
When using install.exe /s, you can specify the virtual node for cluster installation. The following
shows the syntax:
install.exe /s"\\VirtualServerName"
NOTE: There is no space between the back-slashes (\\) and VirtualServerName.
HP recommends that you run this command from the active node.
Encrypt Job option ensures end-to-end print job security
The new HP UPD option Encrypt Job (with password) is available for use with specific printers (HP
ColorLaserJet CM4540 MFP Series, HP LaserJet M4555mfp firmware 11.2 or higher), and provides
end-to-end secure print job transmission with mutual authentication on the supported devices. The
print job is sent and stored encrypted, and can only be printed after entering the password on the
device.
Custom media support increased from 5 to 10
The HP UPD now supports up to ten custom media types. Previously, HP UPD supported five media
types.
New UpdateNow.exe tool can update printer configuration
Use the UpdateNow.exe tool to update printer configuration. The tool (not supported) is included in
the HP Printer Administrator´s Resource Kit (PARK). The tool returns programmatic success or failure
(error level) when used with HP UPD 5.3 and higher. You can continue to use rundll32 and the
hpmuxNNN.dll option (rundll32 hpmuxNNN.dll) with HP UPD. However it does not return
programmatic success or failure. (For information, see
Command line interface on page 68.) For
more information about the new tool, see the readme file for this tool (also available in the PARK).
