Printing with Watermark/Overlay
This section explains how to print documents with text watermarks using the printer driver.
When the watermark function is enabled, image data or text string can be printed over document pages. There are two types of watermarks available. With "Image" watermark, a bitmap image (.bmp) is printed over the pages. "Text" watermark prints text string. You can specify only one kind of watermarks at a time.
Create a document using an appropriate application. On the [File] menu, click [Printing Preference...].
When using the existing Custom Setting, click the icon in the [Custom Setting name] box.
If you do not wish to modify the custom settings already registered in the printer driver, change settings such as paper size and source tray as required, and then proceed to step 8.
Click [Add/Change Custom Settings...].
Click the [Edit] tab, if it is not already selected.
Select the [Watermarks/Overlay] check box, and then select the type of the watermarks from the list.
To change the watermarks setting, click [Edit].
Change other print settings if necessary, and then click [Save As...]
If you are modifying an existing setting and want to overwrite the previous setting, click the [Save] button and then proceed to step 8.
Specify a name easily recognizable in the [Custom Setting name] box, and then click [OK].
Click [OK] to close the printer preference dialog box.
Print the document using the print function in the application.
Other than the watermarks already registered in the printer driver, you can create and apply your own watermarks.
For details about creating original watermarks, see the printer driver Help.
