I would add that, if the output goes through Print Wizard, the color logo 
can be in these file formats: PCL, BMP, PNG, TIF, JPG, PCX, DCX, EMF, WMF, 
and more. Also the color logo could be part of an overlay, such as an 
invoice, PO, or letterhead, that is merged with your filepro output. All 
this can be rendered on any Windows-supported printer or to a PDF or TIF 
file.
