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.

3

Click the Extras tab and click Edit in the Overlay section.
