Using watermarks

The watermark option allows you to print text over an existing document.

For example, you use it when you want to have large gray letters reading

“DRAFT” or “CONFIDENTIAL” printed diagonally across the first page or all

pages of a document.

There are several predefined watermarks that come with the machine. They

can be modified, or you can add new ones to the list.

Using overlay

What is an overlay?

An overlay is text and/or images stored in 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 letterhead paper. Rather

than using preprinted letterhead, you can create an overlay containing

exactly the 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 machine just 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.

2.

To save the document as an overlay, access Printing Preferences.

(See "Opening Printing Preferences" on page 5.)

3.

Click the Advanced tab, and select Edit from the Text drop-down list.

Edit Overlay

window appears.

In the Edit Overlay window, click Create.

In the Save As window, type a name of up to eight characters in the

File name

box. Select the destination path, if necessary. (The

default is C:\Formover.)

6.

Click Save. The name appears on the Overlay List.

7.

Click OK or Print until you exit the Print window.

8.

The file is not printed. Instead, it is stored on your computer hard disk

drive.

The overlay document size must be the same as the document

you print with the overlay. Do not create an overlay with a

watermark.
