Overlay Printing

Overlay Printing
Printers with an internal hard disk may utilize overlay printing.
In certain cases a special kind of media, such as preprinted forms or
letterhead, is used. When you produce many documents with preprinted
forms (for a mailing) you may run out of this media. Or you must first reprint
this media, since something may have changed (like a telephone number).
Even though you are able to print, your production stops and becomes
dependent upon external situations.
KONICA MINOLTA technology offers a better solution:
You may download the entire preprinted form(s) onto the printer’s hard disk
and use this file as an overlay template.
Overlay printing features three major advantages:
1
You do not need a stock of preprinted forms anymore.
2
You may modify forms whenever needed, without scrapping existing
stock.
3
The overlays are printer resident and do not need to be transmitted from a
workstation to the printer each time.
Using Overlays
Up to five different overlays may be used for each document. For each
overlay, you may select the following criteria from the printer driver:
a
Disk —Printer hard disk where the overlay file is located.
b
File —The overlay filename.
c
Placement —On All Pages, the First Page only, all Even Pages, all
Odd Pages or Complex (page number for the first placement, followed
by a cycle number, representing how many successive pages later the
overlay should be placed again).
"#
You are also able to include a “watermark”. A watermark is a text
line for special purposes, such as “Confidential” or “Draft.” A
watermark, however, is generated by the printer driver and is
independent from the contents of the document and function of
overlay printing.
The overlay may be designed from any available software application. It must
be a one-page document that can be printed. However, rather than physically
printing it, you must print the overlay to a file and temporarily store it on your
PC’s hard disk as a PostScript file, for example,
overlay1.ps .
