  • Color Overlays

    I know there are thousands of posts and articles out there on this, but I seem to get lost in vast number of ways to do this.

    What I want to do is find the easiest and most cost effective way to eliminate our pre-printed color invoice forms. What I don't want is a 3rd party software that we get locked into a yearly maintenance contact.

    We currently use HP printers using Remote OUTQs/LAN and *HPT. I have no problem creating and using B&W overlays with the Windows AFP drivers. Since we are on V6R1 I also once tried using a color AFP driver to create the overlay and print the spool file directly to a PDF, but I remember it looked horrible. We also want to tumble to print to print a disclaimer on the back of the invoices.

    What is needed to accomplished this natively?
    Do I need IPDS printers or will can I use *HPT and use a color HP or Lexmark printer?
    Is there a certain Windows AFP driver I need to be using?
    Do I need any extra software from IBM?

    Any help is greatly appreciated.
