You should also print your resume at least once yourself, to make sure it looks good and is readable on paper as well.

I personally have got all of it on mine, colour, two-column-layout, font variation (having a design background myself, that's probably not that surprising) and I keep mine limited to one page. If it doesn't fit on a single page you don't need the information as your first impression.
You can always talk about that stuff later or you can put it on your portfolio or your profiles (as you'll be googled after anyway). 😁
