Continuous export
The term "continuous export" refers to the ability of the print driver to copy the latest print-driver
settings back to the working copy of the preconfiguration file. Using this feature, the exported values
can be transferred when a compatible version of the print driver is used to upgrade the print driver.
For instance, if the orientation is set to Landscape for a driver originally installed in Windows XP,
then the orientation setting automatically remains Landscape when the operating system is upgraded
to Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows Server 2003, or Windows Server 2008 and 2008 R2. The
continuous export feature functions transparently from the user's perspective and works only between
print drivers of identical product models.
NOTE: Not all of the driver parameters can be exported; however, the exportable components are
always the same as the components that can be preconfigured.
