How to mark printed invoice as paid

Payment has been applied and "Create Invoice" window correctly shows, "PAID," diagonally across the top, but the word "PAID" doesn't show on the printed or PDF versions of the invoice, only in the Create Invoice window. How can I create an invoice for a customer so that it shows it has been paid?
Thanks in advance for any help.
I'm assuming that you're using QuickBooks 2009 for Mac. This is what the Help documentation says.
=====================
PRINTING A STATUS STAMP ON A FORM
You can print a status stamp on invoices, sales receipts, credit memos, and purchase orders.
• PENDING: this stamp appears on invoices, sales receipts, and credit memos that you mark as pending.
• PAID: this stamp appears on invoices for which the balance due is zero.
• RECEIVED IN FULL: this stamp appears on purchase orders for which the balance due is zero.
• CLOSED: this stamp appears on purchase orders that you mark as closed.
To print a status stamp:
1. Choose Customers > Create Invoices, Enter Sales Receipts, or Create Credit Memos/Refunds, or Vendors > Create Purchase Orders.
2. From the Template pop-up menu, choose the template for which you'd like to add a status stamp.
3. Click Customize. The Layout Designer opens. 

4. In Layout Designer, choose File > Print Status Stamp, and then choose None, Large, or Small. The status stamp appears in blue when you print the form. 
Note: These settings apply only to the printed status stamp; you can't change their appearance or turn them off onscreen. 

5. Choose File > Save to save the template.
6. To print the form, go back to QuickBooks, open the form's window, and then press P.
