The Color Separation controls are located on the tab below.

The Color Separation controls are only available if a monochrome mode has been selected on the Print Mode tab.

Separations on RIP: This will cause the RIP to separate the image into CMYK plates.
Make Negative: This inverts monochrome images when printed.
K, C, M, Y: This allows you to print monochrome images to any of the printheads. This is especially useful to eliminate overuse of a single printhead when printing only monochrome.
