The Information file
The INF file defines monitor resources used by Windows
®
operating systems to ensure monitor compatibility
with the computer’s graphics adapter.
This monitor is Windows Plug and Play-compatible, and the monitor will work correctly without installing the
INF file. Monitor Plug and Play-compatibility requires that the computer’s graphics 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 buffers, boxes, or both.
The Image Color Matching file
The ICM files are data files that are used in conjunction with graphics programs to provide consistent color
matching from monitor screen to printer, or from scanner to monitor screen. These files are activated from
within graphics programs that support this feature.
NOTE:
The ICM color profile is written in accordance with the International Color Consortium (ICC) Profile
Format specification.
