How do I apply a Driver Configuration File (DCF)?

Do either of the following:

The utility is named ConfigUtil.exe. Depending on the printer model, this may be found in the software package under the \Apps\DriverProfiler\x86 or \Apps\DriverProfiler\x64 folders.

Note: Make sure the version you are using matches the operating system platform where the driver configuration is applied.

To create the driver configuration (ldc) file, use the Printer Driver Configuration Utility found in the \Apps\DriverProfiler\ folder. When the file is created, it can be applied to the existing printer object through the command line using the following parameters:

Parameter

Description

/dcf

This specifies the name of the configuration file. The file may reside on the network drive. Make sure it can be accessed from the target computer during script installation.

/pn

This specifies the name of the configuration within the file. This is the model name of the driver, by default.

/po

This specifies the name of the printer object to which the configuration will be applied.

push

This indicates the profile that will be applied to the printer object.


Note: For a simpler deployment, use a batch file to perform the script installation, and then apply the driver configuration.

Sample command line

ConfigUtil push /dcf "C:\Example\ldc" /pn "LegalConfig" /po "Printer yyyy XL"
