Click to enable color management for this document. Color profiles communicate the color characteristics of a device to the color management system. Associating the correct color profile with all of your publishing tools helps to ensure consistent color application throughout the publishing process.


Click to turn on basic color management, which coordinates the way a document's colors appear on your scanner, monitor, and printer.


Click to turn on proofing, which lets you simulate or emulate how colors will appear on a certain printer or monitor. Proofing allows you to ensure color consistency across devices and platforms.


Lists the rendering intents you can use.

A rendering intent maps the colors of an image to the color gamut of a monitor or printer. The color gamut is the range of color that a device can produce:

Pictures is best for photographic images. All the colors of one gamut are scaled to fit within another gamut. The relationship between colors is maintained.

Proof is best for logo images, in which a few colors must be matched exactly. The colors that fall within the gamuts of both devices are left unchanged. Other colors may map to a single color, however, resulting in tone compression.

Graphics is best for graphs and pie charts, in which vividness is more important than actual color. The relative saturation of colors is maintained from gamut to gamut. Colors outside the gamut are changed to colors of the same saturation, but different degrees of brightness, at the edge of the gamut.

Match is used for mapping to a device-independent color space. The result is an idealized print viewed on a perfect paper with a large dynamic range and color gamut.

Folder Options/File Types tab


Lists the file name extensions and associated file types that are currently registered with Windows 2000. When a file type is registered, information including what program should be used to open files of that type is also registered.

Extensions are the characters, usually three or four letters such as .doc, .txt, or .html, that follow the period at the end of a file name. Extensions are associated with a particular type of file. The file type identifies the program, such as Word, that is used to open the file.

When you click one of the types in the list, a summary of what program is used to open the file and what file name extension the type has is displayed under Details.


Click to create a new association between a file name extension and a file type, or to create and register a new file type with Windows 2000.


Click to remove the association between the selected extension and file type. This also deletes the extension from the list, but does not delete the extension nor the file type from the computer.

Removing the association between an extension and file type means files with that extension are not automatically opened by the program linked to that file type.

For example, if you double-click a file with a .txt extension in Windows Explorer, the file opens in Notepad because the .txt extension is associated with the file type Text Document. If you delete the association between the .txt extension and Text Document, you are prompted to select a program to open the file when you double-click the file in Windows Explorer.

To recreate the association, or to create a new association, see the procedure "To associate a file extension with a file type" in Help.

Specifies how much data the volume can hold. To select a different capacity for a floppy disk, click the arrow, and then click an item in the list.


Provides a space for you to type a name for the volume so you can easily identify it later. The volume label can contain up to 11 characters for FAT and FAT32 volumes or up to 32 characters for NTFS volumes.


Starts formatting the volume using the options you've specified.


Displays the file system for the volume. To format using another file system, click the arrow, and then click an item in the list:

FAT (file allocation table) is the best choice if this computer also runs Windows 95 or later, Windows for Workgroups, MS-DOS, or OS/2. The FAT file system is best used on smaller volumes; it is inefficient for volumes larger than 2 GB.

NTFS provides features such as permissions, encryption, compression, and recoverability. NTFS is recommended if the computer has no other operating system installed. If the computer also runs Windows 95 or later, Windows for Workgroups, MS-DOS, or OS/2, be careful when formatting volumes to use NTFS because these operating systems are unable to access or boot from NTFS volumes on the computer.

FAT32 provides improvements over FAT, such as support for volumes up to 32 GB and more efficient use of disk space by using smaller cluster sizes. Windows 2000, Windows 98, and Windows 95 OEM Service Release 2 are the only operating systems capable of accessing FAT32 volumes. MS-DOS, Windows 3.1 and earlier, Windows for Workgroups, the original version of Windows 95, and Windows NT 4.0 and earlier do not recognize FAT32 volumes and are unable to boot from a FAT32 volume.


Specifies the disk allocation unit size or cluster size. All file systems used by Windows 2000 organize your hard disk based on cluster size, which represents the smallest amount of disk space that can be allocated to hold a file. The smaller the cluster size you use, the more efficiently your disk stores information. If no cluster size is specified during format, Windows 2000 picks defaults based on the size of the volume. These defaults have been selected to reduce the amount of space lost and to reduce the amount of fragmentation on the volume. For general use, default settings are strongly recommended.


Specifies whether to perform a quick format by removing files from the disk without scanning the disk for bad sectors. Use this option only if this disk has been previously formatted and you are sure the disk is not damaged.


Specifies whether to format the volume so that folders and files on it are compressed. Compression is supported only on NTFS drives.


Marks the progress of the formatting process.

Specifies how some programs interpret two-digit years. The default time span is 1930 to 2029. For example, using the default, your beginning date is January 1, 1930 and your ending date is December 31, 2029. This means that a program that uses this option to interpret two-digit years will consider the years between (and including) 30 and 99 to be preceded by 19, and years between (and including) 00 and 29 to be preceded by 20. For example, 99 will be interpreted as 1999 and 01 will be interpreted as 2001. To change the time span, type the ending year. Four-digit years are not affected by this option.

Not all programs use this option. If the program you are using does not correctly interpret two-digit years, consult the documentation or manufacturer of that program.

Lists the available print processors. The print processor and the default datatype determine how much processing the Windows 2000 printer performs. The default datatype is used only if the service does not specify a datatype. In general, you do not need to change either the default print processor or data type.

The winprint print processor includes five datatypes: RAW, RAW [FF appended], RAW [FF auto], NT EMF 1.00X, and TEXT. If the default datatype is RAW, the Windows 2000 print processor does not change the document. If it is RAW [FF appended] or RAW [FF auto], the Windows 2000 print processor adds a form-feed character (if appropriate). The RAW datatype is available primarily for LAN Manager compatibility. If the default datatype is TEXT, the Windows 2000 print processor interprets the data as plain text, sending it to the printer using standard text printing commands. The NT EMF 1.00X datatype is automatically used by Windows 2000 to spool most documents printed from Windows 2000 clients and should be selected only in rare circumstances.


Lists the default datatype associated with each print processor. The default datatype is used if the program does not specify a datatype. Most Windows 2000-based programs print using the EMF datatype by default, so they are not affected by the default datatype. If you specify a default datatype other than RAW, most MS-DOS clients, Windows for Workgroups clients, and Windows 95 clients fail when they attempt to use the printer.

In general, you do not need to change either the default print processor or datatype.


Lists the available ports (under Port), the associated port monitor (under Description), and the printers that use the port (under Printer).

If you are configuring a print server and you select the FILE check box under Port, users who print to it will be prompted for a file name. The file will be created on the client computer.


Click to specify the following:

Vendor-specific port monitors

Compaq Computer Corporation Digital Network ports

A port that supports a network printer, such as Hewlett-Packard Network printers

TCP/IP or UNIX printers (using the LPR port)

Macintosh printers

Other vendor-defined ports

Lists the name of the installed printer driver. The printer driver name usually corresponds to the name of the print device.


Click to install a new or updated printer driver.


Specifies that documents should be spooled before being printed.

Spooling is the process of first storing the document on the hard disk and then sending the document to the print device. You can continue working with your program as soon as the document is stored on the disk. The spooler sends the document to the print device in the background.


Specifies that the print device should wait to begin printing until after the last page of the document is spooled. The printing program application is unavailable until the document has finished printing. However, using this option ensures that the whole document is available to the print device.


Specifies that the print device should begin printing after the first page of the document is spooled. This makes the printing program available sooner.


Specifies that the document should be sent directly to the print device and not spooled. Use this if you cannot print using either of the print spooling options.


Directs the spooler to check the printer setup and match it to the document setup before sending the document to the print device. If the information does not match, the document is held in the queue.

A mismatched document in the queue will not prevent correctly matched documents from printing.


Specifies that the spooler should favor documents that have completed spooling when deciding which document to print next, even if the completed documents are a lower priority than documents that are still spooling. If there are no documents that have completed spooling, the spooler will favor larger spooling documents over smaller ones. Use this option if you want to maximize printer efficiency.

When this option is disabled, the spooler picks documents based only on priority.


Specifies that the spooler should not delete documents after they are printed. This allows a document to be resubmitted to the printer from the printer queue instead of from the program.


Specifies whether the advanced printing feature is enabled. When enabled, metafile spooling is turned on and options such as Page Order, Booklet Printing, and Pages Per Sheet are available, depending on your printer. For normal printing, leave the advanced printing feature set to the default (Enabled). If compatibility problems occur, you can disable the feature. When disabled, metafile spooling is turned off and the printing options might be unavailable.


Click to view or change the default document properties for all users of the selected printer. If you share your local printer, these settings will be the default document properties for other users.


Click to specify the data type. In general, you should not need to change either the default print processor or data type. However, a few programs may require a specialized print processor and a particular data type to print.


Click to change the separator page that prints between documents.

You can use separator pages to help find your documents among others at a printer and switch between PostScript and PCL printing. You can create your own custom separator files.


Configures the printer for private use. Only the user logged onto the computer will be able to use this printer.


Makes the printer available to network users.


Specifies the shared printer name. To allow Windows 3.x and MS-DOS clients to use the printer, use eight or fewer characters in the printer name with an extension of no more than three characters, such as Printer9.pcl.

Click to replace the selected printer driver. You can update an existing driver, or you can downgrade to a previous version of the driver.

This feature is useful when you want to update a single driver for multiple printers. For example, if you have three identical printers installed on a print server, and you have created three print queues for each printer, you can update all three printers with the latest driver by clicking Update. One way to obtain the latest printer driver is through your printer manufacturer’s Web site. Once you download the driver and save it on your computer, you can use Update to install the driver on the printer server. In this case, the driver would be automatically updated for the three printers and their respective print queues.
