Unlike other cloud print solutions, Universal Print is driverless. It's built on the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) from the PWG. Users don't connect to printers directly. They instead connect to the Universal Print cloud service that communicates using IPP. The cloud service also communicates with printers (or print connectors) using IPP. No driver needs to be installed on the Windows client where users add their printers. One major design goal for Universal Print is to make driver management a thing of the past. While centrally managing drivers is necessary for other cloud print products, it's not required for Universal Print.
