[Misc] Is it possible to clone the presets within an existing Sharp Driver?

[iHateSharpFusers]

I did some digging and couldn't find any file that indicated it even contained presets. Was wondering if anyone had an idea. This would be very nice for some installs with very particular customers.

I use the DriverSetupUtility to create a driver with the good preset, but only one.

Found this too :

DriverSetupUtility? I have this being used in a local environment where sharing from a user's machine would not be ideal. But that's a good suggestion that could work in some of our scenarios.

I have done this before by setting up the printer (the model number has to be the same unless you modify the file in notepad) and then going into reg edit and copying the registry key and pasting it on a new pc. i.e. Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Sharp\SHARP BP-60C31 PCL6\printer_ui

Do this at your own peril and test it on your pc first.

This is what I expected it would take. Thanks for this, I'll let you know when I give this a shot.

There is a new sharp app Synappx Manage that allows you to do this. Had training on it yesterday but haven't tried it. The driver setup seems very simplistic so don't know if this is what you are looking for but you can set up multiple default drivers and populate them pretty easily. Over all app seems very cumbersome with a lot of bells and whistles.

That sounds good for creating new drivers, but it sounds like he wants to copy an existing driver. For instance, one time I did a demo where I wanted to try and duplicate the driver they were using because she had 30+ presets on it, and knowing that she was super picky, I wanted to be able to copy that old driver on to my PC so that I could recreate the presets back at the office on the new driver and test them to make sure they worked.
