Creating an overlay

To create an overlay, follow these steps:
1. From the driver menu, click Overlays.
2. Make sure the Create menu tab is selected, then input a
name for the overlay you want to define in the Overlay
Description box.
3. Click Start.
4. If you are using the Overlay & Softtray Manager for the first
time, a dialog box appears showing you the name of the
default overlay directory. Click OK to save your overlay in
the default directory.
If you want to store your overlay in a different directory, click
Cancel and then input the entire path to the directory in the
Overlay Description box. Next, click Start.
5. In the dialog box that appears, click OK. The next file you send
to the printer from an application program, such as Windows
Write or Notepad, will be saved as the overlay using the name
you entered earlier. If you want to stop the procedure, click
Cancel.
6. Quit the printer driver and open the application that you will
use to create the overlay.
7. Print the file that you want to save as the overlay. It is possible
to save any kind of file as an overlay. When printing starts, a
message appears telling you the overlay was programmed
successfully.
