The Web Driver Installer Utility
Use this utility to create a web page and set up the printer
and groups of clients who have access to the printer. Once
the new printer has been registered by the administrator, the
utility automatically sends a email to each registered client.
The client then clicks the URL included in the email and is
taken to the web page where they can select the printer,
appropriate Windows Operating System, language and
driver type (PCL or PS) and download the selected drivers
to their system.
