By Alistair Nestor, PaperCut: It’s hard to explain to kids who grew up in the age of cloud computing just what a pain printer drivers used to be. It meant juggling multiple drivers and legacy printers, having to manually update drivers on every machine, rolling out ad hoc firmware updates and driver patches. It was…a lot. The good news is that we now live in a world with universal print drivers (UPD).

A UPD is basically a software solution designed to work across a wide range of printer models and brands. Instead of installing a unique driver for every printer in your fleet, a universal print driver offers a single, standardized interface that simplifies the whole config, streamlines deployment, and improves compatibility. Super handy when you need to figure out how to print remotely, or in BYOD environments.
