Once someone has set up all the necessary overlay files on the
printer, other users only have to switch on the required settings in
the printer driver to use the overlays.
Creating Documents To Use As Overlays
An overlay can be created in any software application that can
handle logos, letterheads, forms, etc. and can print to a file.
1.
With the file to be stored as an overlay open in your application
program, choose
File
then
Print
.
2.
Ensure 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, and then click
Propertiesµ
This should open the
printer driver settings.
4.
Select the
Overlay
tab.
5.
Choose
Create Form
from the drop-down list, then make your
selections in the dialog box which appears and click
OK
.
6.
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.
NOTE
The internal hard disk must be installed in the
printer to allow for spooling of the print job before
final printing.
If the hard disk memory is insufficient for the
spooled data,
DISK FULL
is displayed and only one
copy printed.
If the software application being used has a collate
print option, this must be turned OFF for overlay to
operate correctly.
An overlay may consist of more than one
component files.
