Item Description
Overlay This option is available only when you use
the PCL printer driver.
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.
