The HP Universal Print Driver is the single driver that gives users access to a range of HP print devices, in the office or on the road, without downloading separate drivers for every utilized printer.
The HP Universal Print Driver works well with a broad range of networked and direct-connected HP print products using PCL 5, PCL 6 or PostScript emulation. The UPD installs in Traditional Mode, or Dynamic Mode to enhance mobile printing.
Dynamic Mode discovers network printers, or enter a printer name or address and print anywhere on your network. It's great when you're on the road or want to print to a new device but do not have a model specific print driver installed. Traditional Mode is just like a traditional driver.

About PCL (Printer Command Language) Driver:
PCL Printer drivers are basically a set of small programs able to create an interface between your printer and the operating system on your personal computer. If your printer uses PCL protocol, it is imperative that you install these drivers in order to enjoy the full capabilities of your device.
Although PCL drivers offer a large number of features, they are not recommended for use in high quality printing as they don’t reproduce colors precisely.
Printer Command Language or PCL drivers are generally used for home or office printers because they offer very good compatibility (most printers use PCL), give less printer errors and are less demanding on your network connection.
Before installing these drivers, please check to see which the latest version of PCL supported by your printer is.
If your device is PCL capable, and you have selected the correct printer model and OS version, then feel free to hit the download button. Our website is updated daily with new printer and driver versions, so visit us often to keep your device up to date.
