Functional test

1. Use the group Policy Modeling tool to run simulations on specific users or groups and specific machines.

NOTE: The GPMC is a Microsoft supplied tool and is an optional component on server versions that can be

downloaded from the Microsoft Web site.

2. Run the modeling wizard to verify your settings.

3. Right-click Group Policy Modeling.

4. Click Group Policy Modeling Wizard.

5. Enter the user that you want to model.

6. Select the Skip to the final page check box.

Registry population

Use this test to verify that the settings in the group policy object populate in the registry of the client computer.

1. Verify that the current user is logged into the domain.

2. Run regedit.exe and verify that the registry populates correctly. The registry path is

HKCU/Software/Policies/Hewlett-Packard/HP Print Settings/ADSPrintPolicy.

3. Verify the Binary Registry key "UPDADS" exists at registry path HKCU/Software/Hewlett-Packard/HP Print

Settings.

NOTE: Active Directory does not refresh settings immediately after you make a change to the Group Policy object. To

refresh the settings on the client, you must log out and then log back in, or you can use the gpupdate utility with the

/Force option run from a command window to force Active Directory to update the settings.

Example: c:/> gpupdate /Force

Final test

Install the latest version of the HP UPD and verify that the screens and final print reflect the policy settings entered in

the Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc).

How HP AD policies get applied to the driver

Unlike DCU configured drivers, AD policies are dynamic policies. After the driver installation, the administrator can

change the policies from the server, and those changes get applied to all the clients. The drivers on the clients will

reflect the new policy.

For this to work, the HP UPD driver keeps on monitoring for policy changes, whenever a user tries to open the

Printing Preference or Printer Properties, or when the user tries to print. In these scenarios, if the HP UPD detects that

there is a policy change, it applies the new policy to the printer queues, and during this policy application process, the

HP UPD briefly opens up a dialog which shows the progress of the policy application.

The policy application status window looks similar to this:
