C Printing Data Combined
Using Overlays
You can use the overlay feature to combine data for printing.
For example, you can first a create an overlay for a blank form and store it in the printer. Later, you can
send the data for the form to the printer to print out the data with the form.
Here, we will explain the process by printing from Word on Windows 98 as an example.
Depending on the application software, the way to display the printer properties dialog box might be
different. Check the manual for the application software used.
