Product Name: color laserjet 4700dn
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)
 

Hello,

 

I am trying to roll out drivers for our color laserjet 4700dn via login script. The only driver available on HP downloads for this model is the Universal Printer Driver. When I install the printer and let Windows 7 use the driver that it downloads from Windows Update it duplexes fine but I cannot find where to download that driver package so I am stuck using the Universal Printer Driver if I want to push it out from my login script.

 

With the UPD if I select duplex the printer just ignores the setting and proceeds to print single sided. If I set the printer preferences ahead of time to default to duplex and then print from an application it works but then I have to go back and change the preferences or every job will print duplex.

 

Hopefully someone knows a fix for the UPD duplex issue or maybe there is somewhere else I can download the specific driver for the color 4700dn under Windows 7 64 bit that would be even better. Otherwise I will be stuck manually installing the printer every time I set up a new workstation.

 

Thanks for any suggestions.
