System Updates is a print server service that keeps the system software on your print server 
up-to-date with the latest Microsoft security updates. It runs in the background on 
the print server and automatically checks for updates by contacting an update server 
periodically (every 24 hours by default) through the Internet. If one or more updates are 
available, System Updates alerts you to download and install the updates, or downloads and 
installs updates automatically without any user interaction. You can turn off automatic 
checking and use System Updates to check for and install updates manually at any time. 

System Updates runs on print servers running Microsoft Windows XPe.
