Using overlay
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.
Creating a new page overlay
To use a page overlay, you must create a new page overlay containing
your logo or image.

appear when printed as an overlay.
