The Information le
The INF le denes monitor resources used by Windows® operating systems to ensure monitor compatibility
with the computers graphics adapter.
This monitor is Windows Plug and Play–compatible and the monitor will work correctly without installing the
INF le. Monitor Plug and Play compatibility requires that the computer’s graphic card is VESA DDC2-
compliant and that the monitor connects directly to the graphics card. Plug and Play does not work through
separate BNC-type connectors or through distribution buers/boxes.

The ICM les are data les that are used in conjunction with graphics programs to provide consistent color
matching from monitor screen to printer, or from scanner to monitor screen. This le is activated from within
graphics programs that support this feature.
NOTE: The ICM color prole is written in accordance with the International Color Consortium (ICC) Prole
Format specication.
