Creating documents to use as overlays
PCL
An overlay can be created in any software application that can handle logos, letterheads, forms, etc. and can print to a file.
To create a print (PRN) file:
1.Open your application program. Open the file to be stored as an overlay. Choose File, then Print.
2.Make sure that the "Print To File" option is switched on in your application's Print dialog box.
3.Depending on the application, you may need to select your printer model. Click the Preferences button. This should open the printer driver settings.
Important
You must use the Oki PCL driver to do this.
4.Choose all of the printer driver settings with which you would like your overlay to print.
5.Try to keep the overlay to a single sheet. Don't use
6.Click OK to close the Printing Preferences dialog box.
7.Click Print.
Instead of sending the print job to the printer, this prompts you to save the print job on your PC's hard disk.
Give the file a meaningful name such as "my template.prn."
