respectively for Windows NT 4.0 and 2000. By contrast, those 
properties set within an application are document sticky only; 
when you close the application, the print properties you set are 
lost. 
Furthermore, some applications allow you to specify attributes 
that are mirrored by the driver. For example, most applications 
allow you to define the page orientation from a Page Setup or 
similar dialog box. Whenever this is the case, the application 
settings defined for the document take precedence over the driver 
settings. So, to continue with the above example, if the page setup
