There should be a section in the user manual about it.

Watermarks allow you to customize your printouts by placing a background image behind your roster, such as a clan symbol or force emblem. When the Print Output form is presented, the watermark settings will be initialized with the default settings you configured via the "Settings" menu (if any). Controlling watermarks via this form temporarily overrides the default behavior only for this printout. The next time you print, the settings will again use the defaults (if any).

To use a watermark, you must first check the "Use Watermark" checkbox. Once enabled, you can use the "Browse" button to select the file to use for the watermark image and optionally check the "Stretch to Full Page" checkbox to have Army Builder expand the watermark to cover the entire page.

Important! The watermark image must be a standard Windows BMP file, and Army Builder assumes the bitmap is provided at 300dpi resolution for scaling purposes.

There any sites that have watermarks available?

Whenever I'm putting together sample rosters for trade shows, I have
a moderate amount of success just doing a google image search for
"blood angels logo" (for example) and then increasing the brightness
/ reducing the contrast of the resulting image until it's very faint
- you could always try that. I'm not sure of any sites that have a
library of game-related watermarks, though (or the legal issues).
