The .INF file is often just the steps to install with pointers to the programs needed. It would be as fast and as reliable to just use the printer driver.

Yes.  All i need printer inf file
I have over than 20 printer type in my company.
So i want to make an image for my operating system and i want to add to this image this inf file.
 When I connect any print type i will install automatic
Most suppliers provide a basic driver and that is what you need. I do not think you can build a driver from an INF file . That is not its purpose
I see it. In other company when connect any printer  to workstation and this printer driver is not in windows update the printer install auto

I ask him about it he said inf file and he is add to image

If  inf file is not for that
Any ideas for how can do it
Also after format you will not find any printer in control panel but when connected any it will  be install by it self
It depends on the operating system. For Windows 7 run the Windows Printer Update from the Printer Management tab in Devices and Printers. This installs most basic printer drivers. I have done this. Try doing this before imaging.

From what I read in the article, that is what you get when you run the Windows Printer Update that I suggested above.
No try to install hp lj 1010 or 400 or 600

Without internet access

Also when i do pnp utility i do not need any windows update just connect the printer and you see the printer in devices  and printer section
When you ask a question, tell people you have no internet access. You did NOT say this.
I ask how to  copy the file not how to install  printer
How to copy inf  file to windows drivers store
I find the solution and it work for my
