Abstract

In a system having a plurality of digital printers on a network, when a newly-installed printer is discovered, new printer's object ID is used to determine the type (make and model) of printer. A template printer, of sufficiently similar type, is also identified on the network. Configuration data is then automatically copied from the template printer to the new printer. A central database of configuration data for various printer types is not required.
