You should configure your printer driver settings via the printer device properties and
document defaults properties for your typical print jobs and use your application's
printer setup method for print jobs that require special, less frequently needed printer
settings.
Because Windows NT remembers the configuration changes you make to the driver,
reinstalling the driver does not restore the factory default configuration.
Five tabs appear in the magicolor 2200 DeskLaser Properties window through the Start
menu: General, Ports, Color Management, Scheduling, Sharing, and Security. The tabs
and a summary of the options found on each are as follows:
General—Allows you to name the printer, specify a location, specify a driver to be
used, install a new or updated printer driver, use a separator page between documents,
specify a specialized print processor/data type, and print a test page. See your Win-
dows documentation.
Ports—Lists the available ports (under Ports), the associated port monitor (under
Description), and a comma-delimited list of printers that use the port (under Printer).
Allows you to add, delete, or configure ports. It also allows the printer to get setting
and status information from other printing devices, and enables printer pooling (print-
ing to two or more identical printing devices through one logical printer). See your
Windows documentation.
Color Management—Allows you to select the color profile associated with your
printer or allow the operating system to make the selection for you. See your Windows
documentation.
Scheduling (Windows NT 4.0) or Advanced (Windows 2000)—Allows you to con-
figure the printer for availability, set spooling information, and define default docu-
ment printing priority. See your Windows documentation.
Sharing—Allows you to share the printer and install alternate drivers. See your Win-
dows documentation.
Security—Allows you to modify the permissions to limit access on the printer, view
or set auditing information, or view or take ownership of the selected item(s). See
your Windows documentation.
