Opening the Printer Properties dialog box directly from the Start menu
This method is used for maintenance operations such as print head cleaning, or to
specify printer settings common to all application programs.
When the Printer Properties dialog box is opened from the Start menu, the Windows
operating system adds several tabs, including the Details tab. These do not appear
when the Printer Properties dialog box is opened from within an application.
For further information about these additional tabs, refer to your Windows
documentation.
