Using Overlays

What is an Overlay?

An overlay is text and/or images stored on the computer hard
disk drive (HDD) as a special file format that can be printed on
any document. Overlays are often used to take the place of
preprinted forms and letterhead paper. Rather than using
preprinted letterhead, you can create an overlay containing the
exact same information that is currently on your letterhead. To
print a letter with your company's letterhead, you need only tell
the machine to print the letterhead overlay on your document.

Creating a New Page Overlay

To use a page overlay, you must create a page overlay
containing a logo or image.
1
Create or open a document containing text or an image for
use in a new page overlay. Position the items exactly as you
wish them to appear when printed as an overlay.
2
To save the document as an overlay, access printer
properties. See page 4.2.
