I believe the overlay needs to be applied when the spool file is created. The cpysplf doesn't have an option to use the overlay. I use overlays often, but always with the AFPDS. I seem to remember they were not supported directly on SCS and a 3rd party application was needed to perform the merge.
I have used this link in the past as it hits a variety of parts to the process.
https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/creating-afp-resources-using-ibm-afp-printer-driversThere was also an IBM redbook which is probably not current that provided some good information. The good news is overlays can be created in Word or PDF whereas previously a design tool was needed.
