Building a printer driver package?


Recommended Posts

Hmn... well, that does not seem to work, when the printer is not connected... I'll try some more variations of this command ;)

Hi again,

Tested some things out with the drivers and ended up with being able to install just one of six drivers :( Only the 1100d driver installed qithout errors on different machines. The others bring up some weird messages I cannot allocate :blink:

Here is my batch file for the drivers:

@ECHO OFF
ECHO Installiere HP Business Inkjet 1100d ...
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /b "HP Business Inkjet 1100d" /f c:\hp\1100d\hpf1100k.inf /r "lpt1:" /m "hp business inkjet 1100 series"

ECHO Installiere HP Business Inkjet 1200d ...
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /b "HP Business Inkjet 1200d" /f c:\hp\1100d\hpf1200k.inf /r "lpt1:" /m "HP Business Inkjet 1200 Series"

ECHO Installiere HP Deskjet 640c ...
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /b "HP Deskjet 640c" /f c:\hp\1100d\hpf640k.inf /r "lpt1:" /m "hp deskjet 640c series" /y

ECHO Installiere HP Deskjet 840c ...
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /b "HP Deskjet 840c" /f c:\hp\1100d\hpf840k.inf /r "lpt1:" /m "hp deskjet 840c series"

ECHO Installiere HP Deskjet 930c ...
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /b "HP Deskjet 930c" /f c:\hp\1100d\hpf930k.inf /r "lpt1:" /m "hp deskjet 930c series"

ECHO Installiere HP Deskjet 940c ...
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /b "HP Deskjet 940c" /f c:\hp\1100d\hpf940k.inf /r "lpt1:" /m "hp deskjet 940c series"

The first printer (1100d) works great and installs properly.

The second (1200d) message brings up this error:

The command "rundll" was not successful (freely translated from german)
Command: /if /b "HP Business Inkjet 1200d" /f c:\hp\1100d\hpf1200k.inf /r "lpt1:" /m "HP Business Inkjet 1200 Series".  The action (?) could not be completed.

The command "rundll" was not successful.
Command: /if /b "HP Deskjet 640c" /f c:\hp\1100d\hpf640k.inf /r "lpt1:" /m "hp deskjet 640c series" /y.  You either typed a wrong printer name or the printer is not commencted to the server anymore. Klick "Help" for further informations.

THe other four drivers bring up this message:

The printer command "rundll" was not successful.
Command: /if /b "HP Deskjet 930c" /f c:\hp\1100d\hpf930k.inf /r "lpt1:" /m "hp deskjet 930c series".  The action (?) could not be completed.

May anyone help me pleeease. We have got about 50 notebooks to configure and it's pretty annoying, when we need to install every driver by hand :(

See attachment for the solution :)

I normally have all the drivers in the package

I put in some more printers we needed.

How can you set printer settings using rundll32 e.g options in ntforms & configure tab of printer properties

Any views on this would be appreciated please

Thanks

So I guess no print driver pack was ever created. That’s a bummer! I would love a driver pack. Epically now since you can keep the driver packs on XP it will be awesome. At my job I am always downloading printer drivers. That would be very very usefull.
