eForms
eForms is a firmware-based feature which allows storing a print job up to 20 pages long. The
job is stored as a compressed raster image in permanent storage. eForm enables the stored print
job to be electronically merged with subsequent print jobs.
Enable this feature is using your Printer Properties.
To create eforms:
1.
Select the Job Options tab within your Printer Properties.
2.
Select the desired eform action from the pulldown.
You can Print and Save the form, include it once, or include it repeatedly. Do Not Use
eForms indicates the feature is not currently enabled. This is the default setting.
Include eForm Once overlays the current print job with the eForm named in the eForm
Name box. The overlay function is completed after a single pass through the eForm.
Include eForm Repeatedly overlays the current print job with the eForm named in the
eForm Name box. The overlay function is repeated. For example, if the eForm is two
pages then the first page of the eForm is overlaid on pages 1, 3, 5, etc., and page 2 of the
eForm is overlaid on pages 2, 4, 6, etc.
Print and Save as eForm indicates that the job should be printed, then saved using the
name defined in the eForm Name box.

Overlays
The Overlay window allows you to create, delete, and edit behavior of overlays. An overlay is a
portion of a document that is added to each page of a print job such as a letterhead or standard
form. (there are no pre-defined overlays). You must create overlays using your application of
choice. Then the application you have created may be included on future print jobs. You are not
allowed to set create overlay as the default. You are only allowed to set create overlay from
within an application.
Overlay Function provides options to print overlays. No Overlay mode does not create an
overlay, and an overlay will not be printed. Create New Overlay will create an overlay when the
print job is sent. Each time, you are prompted for the overlay name.
Another set of options available allows you to define when an overlay should be printed, either
All Pages, First Page Only, or All But First Page.
Front indicates that the overlay is printed in front of the print job data. Placing the overlay in
front of the print data may make portions of the print job unreadable. The default is Front. Back
indicates that the overlay is printed behind print job data. The Remove button deletes the
selected overlay from the list.
