Dell B1260DN manual Overlaya, Creating a new Printing Preferences, List

Using advanced print features

	Item	Description
Overlaya		This option is available only when you use the
		SPL printer driver (see "Software" on page 6).
		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.
		To use a page overlay, you must create a new
		page overlay containing your logo or image.

• The overlay document size must be the same as the document you print with the overlay. Do not create an overlay with a watermark.

•The resolution of the overlay document must be the same as that of the document you will print with the overlay.
