# Printing Documents with an Overlay Image Superimposed (Overlay)

Follow the procedure below to print a document with an overlay image superimposed.

- Before printing using the Overlay function, an overlay image file and overlay set must be created.

- A superimposing image will be aligned with the document page at the upper left corner. If the document to be printed and superimposing image differ in size and orientation, the superimposing image may be cut or run off.

- Depending on the application, you may not get the expected result.

1. Open the file you want to print from the application, and then open the printer properties dialog box.

2. Click the [Edit] tab.

3. Select the [Watermarks/Overlay] check box, and then select an overlay set in the list.

   - To edit the overlay set, click [Edit...].

   - To create a new overlay set, click [Add Overlay....].

4. Make the necessary settings, and then click [OK].

   The printer properties dialog box closes.

5. Make print settings, and then click [OK].
