Using Overlays
What is an Overlay?
An overlay is text and/or images stored in the computer hard
disk drive (HDD) can be printed together with variable data
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
do not need to load preprinted letterhead paper in the printer.
You need only tell the printer to print the letterhead overlay on
your document.
Creating a New Page Overlay
To use a page overlay, you must create a new page overlay
containing your 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. If needed,
save the file for later use.
2 To access the printer properties see page 5.2.
3 Click the Extras tab, and click Edit button in the Overlay
section.
