C7350/7550 User’s Guide: Windows NT 4.0 Operation • 464 Overlays What are Overlays? An overlay is a combination of graphics, fonts, or text that is stored and printed whenever required. An overlay is stored in the printers flash memory or on the hard disk (supplied on some models, optional on others). An overlay is similar to a watermark. However, an overlay can be much more elaborate than a watermark. Overlays can •replace as pre-printed stationery •add your logo or company address to a document •create forms. When to Use Overlays Use overlays to print letterheads, forms, or invoices. Using overlays can reduce the need for pre-printed stationery. Example of Using Overlays Use the Storage Device Manager to create and store three files in the printer: •the company logo •the company address •the company mission statement. Use the Overlay feature to place these files into your document. You can use the files in many different combinations, according to your changing requirements.
