9 Using Managed Printer Lists

Introduction

Managed Printer Lists (MPLs) are XML documents that provide the information required for print jobs to use printing

products. These centrally managed XML documents contain the printer details to assist users in finding supported

printers for printing with the HP UPD for Windows. MPLs provide administrators with the ability to specify the products

that users can use for printing.

MPLs create a reliable and seamless way of discovering and connecting to products in the office or to public printing

venues.

MPLs allow users to select a printer with a descriptive name from a predefined list. Users do not need to know about

network print shares, TCP/IP addresses, printer host names, user access permissions, or other printer connection

details. Instead, users select a printer from the list dialog box and print.

Who should use MPLs?

MPLs can simplify printing for users and improve administrator control over the environment. Costs savings in

productivity, security, support, and supplies frequently justify the effort of implementing MPLs. HP Universal Print

Driver offers two methods to install the UPD, Traditional and Dynamic mode. MPLs are only supported when UPD is

installed in Dynamic mode.

Any business with a supported Microsoft Windows printing environment can benefit from the flexibility and ease of use

that MPLs provide. For example,

 Hotels that offer printing to their guests who log in to their private network can use the HP UPD with MPLs to

quickly connect to in-room or centrally located printers.

 Restaurants, coffee shops, and other printing hot spots that provide Internet access can also define HP MPLs to

allow guests to quickly connect to printers on their premises.

 Enterprise environments with large campuses or offices spread across countries/regions can greatly benefit from

MPLs, especially the mobile users who travel from site to site or building to building.

MPLs support administrative personnel responsible for managing printers and printing within their environment.

Depending on the configuration of the HP UPD on the client machine, MPLs can either simplify printer discovery for

users or restrict printing to a defined set of printers within the environment.
