Hi,
I have the following in a .tex file:
%-------- specials to put DRAFT across the page
\special{!userdict begin /bop-hook{gsave 200 30 translate 65 rotate
/Times-Roman findfont 216 scalefont setfont 0 0 moveto 0.9
setgray (DRAFT) show grestore}def end}
As long as you are sending postscript to the printer, I think some
variant on that will do what you want. Obviously you'll want to
do something smaller than a bit "DRAFT" diagonally across the page.
hope that helps,
Stuart
