Transparent text on Printer.Canvas??

How do I make the text font transparent??
i.e. let the text overlap when not enough space, instead of always the
later comer cover up old text.

SetBkMode(Printer.Canvas, TRANSPARENT);
Printer.textOut(0, 0, 'Transparent text...');

I think it also works with:
Printer.Canvas.Brush.Style := bsClear;
