• Send the command using the SETUP.LST file located in the setup directory
• Use a combination of the two previous methods
For example, this file contains two options: /port and /printer. The installer operates as normal
because the /u option has not been specified. If you use setup /u for the installer, it operates in
unattended mode and uses the two values specified in the defaults section of the SETUP.LST
file. If you use setup /u /printer=1 for the installer, it operates in unattended mode and chooses
HP LaserJet 9000 n. (The options specified on the command line override the options specified in
the SETUP.LST file.)
The options available can also include the /u option. Using this option key makes the installer
always operate as unattended. The following descriptions explain the available options:
• /u. Signals the installer to use the specified port and printer given on the command line (or in
this file), and to use all default selections. Installation then proceeds without prompting the
user.
• /port=xxxx. Used to specify the default port when performing an unattended install. The
value specified by xxxx should be a valid port and should contain no spaces.
• /printer=n. Used to specify the default printer when doing an unattended install. The value
specified by n is an integer that references the list of available printers. For example, the
following printers are available for the HP LaserJet 9000 printer installation:
0 = HP LaserJet 9000 printer
1 = HP LaserJet 9000 n printer
2 = HP LaserJet 9000 dn printer
3 = HP LaserJet 9000 hns printer
• /pd=n. Used to specify whether the selected printer is the default printer, when you have
multiple printers connected to your network. The value specified by n is an integer (that is, 0
or 1). For this argument, entering one sets the selected printer as the default printer. Entering
zero (0) or not specifying a value at all sets the printer as a non-default printer.
You can preset these options in the SETUP.LST file located in the root directory of the
HP LaserJet 9000 software CD-ROM. In the defaults section, add the following syntax:
[Defaults]
Options= /port=<value> /printer=<number> /pd=<number>
