Stamp or Background may be unavailable when certain printer drivers or operating environments are used.
The Stamp function allows you to print a stamp text or a bitmap over or behind document data. It also allows you to print date, time and user name. The Background function allows you to print a light illustration behind the document data.
The procedure for performing stamp/background printing is as follows:
"CONFIDENTIAL," "IMPORTANT," and other stamps that are used often in companies are pre-registered.
Open the printer driver setup window
Click Stamp/Background... (Stamp...) on the Page Setup tab
The Stamp/Background (Stamp) dialog box opens.
With the XPS printer driver, the Stamp/Background... button has become the Stamp... button and only the stamp function can be used.
Select a stamp
Check the Stamp check box, and select the stamp to be used from the list.
The current settings are displayed in the settings preview on the left side of the Page Setup tab.
Set the stamp details
If necessary, specify the following settings, and then click OK.
To change the stamp text, bitmap, or position, click this.
To print the stamp on the front of the document, check this check box.
The stamp is given priority because the stamp is printed over the document data in the sections where the stamp and the document data overlap. When this check box is unchecked, the stamp is printed behind the document data and may be hidden in the overlapping sections depending on the application software used.
Place stamp over text cannot be used when the XPS printer driver is used.
When the XPS printer driver is used, the stamp is normally printed in the foreground of the document.
Check this check box to print a semi-transparent stamp on the document.
