Unidrv - Driver File Details

Driver File Details

The Unidriver is implemented as a set of DLL and GPD files along with other printer-specific support files:

  • UniDrv.dll is the printer graphics driver file for printer languages based on raster images, including most inkjet and dot-matrix printer languages.
  • UniDrvUI.dll is the configuration file. It displays the user interface for UniDrv.dll.
  • UniRes.dll, StdNames.gpd, TtfSub.gpd and some other support files.
  • Raster minidriver, which has the file name extension .GPD, is the data file, and is also called the characterization file. The file name depends on the printer or printer family.

Newer Unidrv-based printer drivers from some printer vendors, e.g. Hewlett Packard, may contain many other support files to allow support for more printer-specific options.

Famous quotes containing the words driver, file and/or details:

    God help the horse, and the driver too!
    And the people and beasts who have never a friend!
    For the driver easily might have been you,
    And the horse be me by a different end!
    And nobody knows how their days will cease!
    And the poor, when they’re old, have little of peace!
    James Kenneth Stephens (1882–1950)

    Probably nothing in the experience of the rank and file of workers causes more bitterness and envy than the realization which comes sooner or later to many of them that they are “stuck” and can go no further.
    Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)

    There was a time when the average reader read a novel simply for the moral he could get out of it, and however naïve that may have been, it was a good deal less naïve than some of the limited objectives he has now. Today novels are considered to be entirely concerned with the social or economic or psychological forces that they will by necessity exhibit, or with those details of daily life that are for the good novelist only means to some deeper end.
    Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)
