The Corporate Edition includes print drivers for computers running Windows 2000, Windows XP (32/64 bit), Windows Vista (32/64 bit), Windows 2003 Server (32/64 bit) and Windows 2008 Server (32/64 bit). These drivers, ideal for enterprise or corporate users, are Microsoft WHQL compliant and provide a customized, small-footprint software solution.
With this solution, an administrator can preload the drivers on to the system using installation management software.
The Corporate Toolbox Edition provides additional support and maintenance tools for your printer.
Before you install the software, make sure the computer meets the following requirements:
· Any Intel® Pentium® II, Intel Celeron®, or compatible processor (Pentium III or higher recommended)
· 128 MB RAM (256 MB RAM recommended)
· 200 MB free hard-disk space
· Microsoft Internet Explorer, version 5.01 Service Pack 2 or higher (available at http://www.microsoft.com/)
· Internet access (recommended)
· Available USB port (any computer without USB connectivity is not supported unless it is a network install)
· 2X or higher CD-ROM drive (if installing from CD)
· SVGA 800 x 600 monitor (16-bit color minimum)
· Windows 2000 Professional, Service Pack 4 or higher
· Windows XP Home Edition, Service Pack 1 or higher recommended
· Windows XP Professional, Service Pack 1 or higher recommended
·
Windows
· Windows 2003 Server
· Windows 2008 Server
Note: After installing the Corporate Edition on a computer running Windows 2000, it is highly recommended that you reboot the computer.
The person installing the software MUST have administrative privileges to install the Corporate Edition. You can also use the “RunAs” feature available in Windows XP and above to run the installation using administrator credentials.
Note: After installing the software, you do not need administrative privileges when connecting the device to the computer using the USB cable and starting plug-and-play.
1. Download the web package from www.hp.com
2. Once the web package is downloaded, double-click the file to extract its contents.
Note: For more information about repackaging, see the documentation that came with the installation-management software you are using.
When connecting a device directly to a computer using a USB connection, you can either install the software before you connect the cable (“software first”) or connect the cable before you install the software (“hardware first”).
The software-first method requires you to complete the software portion of the installation before connecting the device to the computer. If you use a script installation process, such as Active Directory, the driver is typically installed as part of the script PRIOR to the device being connected to the computer.
During the hardware-first installation procedure, the plug-and-play event occurs before the software is installed. After the plug-and-play event finishes, the installer completes the installation process.
Install the software
Use one of the following methods to install the package:
· Run setup.exe from the package
· Deploy the package using the MSI installer. For example, deploying through Active Directory.
The default install option does not require any command-line parameter. However if you want to change the default install behavior, you can use the following available switches to modify the install behavior.
In addition, you can also modify the [Setup] parameter in autorun.inf file:
[Setup]
CommandLine=-usbsuppress
Available switches
The following table lists the switches available for modifying command-line parameters:
|
Switch |
Description |
|
-usbsuppress |
To prevent plug-and-play from detecting new devices each time you plug in a device to the same physical port. (These plug-and-play events are typically initiated because each device has a unique serial number.) |
Setup.exe does not support installation of network devices. However, you can run a script to create a network port and use the PrintUIEntry function (provided by Microsoft) to create the network printer. Alternatively, you can also do an “Add Printer” provided by Microsoft.
Note: You do not need to set up the printer package if you are installing a network printer first. Also, you MUST have administrative privileges to use any of both methods.
Step 1: Create a network port
To create a network port, use one of the following methods.
Method 1
(Microsoft 2000, Microsoft Windows XP, Windows
1. Launch Notepad and save the following into a *.reg file.
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Monitors\Standard TCP/IP Port\Ports\<portname>]
"Protocol"=dword:00000001
"Version"=dword:00000001
"HostName"=""
"IPAddress"="16.149.123.123"
"HWAddress"=""
"PortNumber"=dword:0000238c
"SNMP Community"="public"
"SNMP Enabled"=dword:00000001
"SNMP Index"=dword:00000001
Note: Replace <portname> with any name. This shall be the name of the port that you will use in Step 2. Also, values for “IPAddress”, “HWAddress”, and “HostName” should reflect your network environment.
For example:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Monitors\Standard TCP/IP Port\Ports\IP_192.168.1.3]
2. In an MS-DOS window, run the following command:
regedit /s <reg file>
Note: Replace <reg file> with the name of the reg file created in step 1.
3. Restart the print spooler by running the following from an MS-DOS command prompt.
net stop spooler
net start spooler
The computer creates the TCP/IP port.
Method 2
(Microsoft
Windows XP, Windows
Use the prnport.vbs command
In an MS-DOS window, type the following command, and then press Enter:
cscript prnport.vbs -a -r <portname> -h <ipaddress> -o RAW
Note: In a Windows Vista system, the prnport.vbs command is a Visual Basic script located in the %WINDIR%\System32\Printing_Admin_Scripts\<language> directory. To use this command, at a command prompt, type cscript followed by the full path to the Prnport.vbs file, or change directories to the appropriate folder.
Note: Replace <portname> with the name of the port you are creating and replace <ipaddress> with the IP address of the printer you are using.
Note: This example illustrates a simplified version of the prnport.vbs command. For more detailed information, run “cscript prnport.vbs” in an MS-DOS window.
For example:
cscript prnport.vbs -a -r IP_192.168.1.3 -h 192.168.1.3 -o raw
Step 2: Install the printer using the PrintUIEntry
function
(Microsoft Windows XP, Windows
In an MS-DOS window, type the following, and then press Enter:
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /r <portname> /m <model> /f <inf>
Note: Replace the following parameters:
Replace <portname> with the portname you are creating.
Replace <model> with the model of the printer. Acceptable values are:
HP Officejet 6000 E609a Series
or
HP Officejet 6000 E609n Series
Replace <inf> with the location of the hpoj60az.inf file provided with the printer package.
Note: This example illustrates a simplified version of the PrintUIEntry command. For more detailed information, run “rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /?” in an MS-DOS window.
For example:
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /r IP_192.168.1.3 /m "HP Officejet 6000 E609a Series" /f “C:\ENT\ hpoj60az.inf”
or
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /r IP_192.168.1.3 /m "HP Officejet 6000 E609n Series" /f “C:\ENT\ hpoj60az.inf”
To deploy the printer driver package so that it includes just the printer drivers, remove the following files and folders:
· Setup.exe
· autorun.inf
· Setup folder
There is no uninstaller provided with Corporate Edition. To uninstall, use a standalone scrubber utility available from the Web.
The scrubber utility has no user interface, and no command-line switches are available with this utility.
To use the scrubber utility:
· Double-click the Uninstall.bat file.
If you require additional support and maintenance tool for your printer, install the Corporate Toolbox Edition. Download the Corporate Toolbox Edition from the web and run the executable.
You can use the following switches to change the default install behavior.

Installing using Active Directory
To deploy the Corporate Toolbox Edition using Active Directory, activate the Ent_Toolbox.msi instead of setup.exe in the extracted web packages. This method uses the same command-line switches listed in the “Available switches” section. Instead of passing through a command-line, you need to modify the autorun.inf as follows.
Step 1: Modify the autorun.inf file
With autorun.inf in the same location as setup.exe, open the autorun.inf file.
Locate the [setup] section at the beginning of the autorun.inf. The default values are:
[Setup]
CommandLine=-s
Step 2: Deploy the
extracted web package via Active Directory Server
For information about deploying software using Active Directory Server, see the documentation provided with Active Directory Server.
To uninstall the Corporate Toolbox Edition, use one of the following methods:
- Use the Add/Remove Programs utility from the Control Panel in Windows.
-
Uninstall
through Active Directory Server. (For information, see the documentation
provided with Active Directory Server)
-
Use
the standalone scrubber utility available from the Web
The scrubber utility uses the following files (located in the same folder as the Uninstall.bat file) to remove the Toolbox:
HPZscr01.exe (for 32-bit operating systems only)
HPZscr40.exe (for 64-bit operating systems only)
hptScr24.dat
To use the scrubber utility, choose one of the following methods:
· Double-click the Uninstall.bat file.
-Or-
· From an MS-DOS command prompt, enter
start hpzscrXX.exe -datfile
hptScr24.dat -unattended -nocopytotemp –noreboot
Note: For 32-bit operating systems, replace XX with 01. For 64-bit operating systems, replace XX with 40.
Available switches
The following table lists the switches available for modifying command-line parameters:
|
Switch |
Description |
|
Only the <file name> |
Directs the uninstaller to try for 30 seconds to delete the file. Used by “suicide applications” to delete themselves. (Otherwise, because their binary files are in use, they could not delete themselves.) |
|
-datfile <file name> |
Indicates that <file name> is the DAT file to use instead of the file to delete. Make sure you use this switch or you might end up deleting your DAT file. |
|
-unattended |
Allows the uninstaller to begin automatically and requires no user intervention. (The uninstaller does display progress screens.) |
|
-silent |
Allows the uninstaller to begin automatically and requires no user intervention. (The uninstaller does not display progress screens.) |
|
-noreboot |
Disables the “reboot required” screen. |
|
-forcereboot |
Forces the uninstaller to assume a reboot is needed, even if it is not required. |
|
-nocopytotemp |
Normally, the scrubber utility copies itself to a temp folder so that it can delete its own binary from the location where it was launched, which can be useful when debugging.. However, you can use this switch to prevent the utility from creating this copy. |
