OverlayThis option is available only when you use the PCL/SPL printe
r driver. This option is not available when you use XPS 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 a ny document. 
Overlays are often used to take the place of letterhead paper.  Rather than using preprinted letterhead, you can create an overl ay containing 
exactly the same information that is currently on your letterhe ad. 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 yo u 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.
