You can do this using the postscript driver dvips (and ghostscript).
Tomas Rockicki gives the following \special statement to write a light
DRAFT across each page (TexInfo on Dvips):

     \special{!userdict begin /bop-hook{gsave 200 30 translate
     65 rotate /Times-Roman findfont 216 scalefont setfont
     0 0 moveto 0.7 setgray (DRAFT) show grestore}def end}

Apart from this, the LaTeX Companion (Goossens, Mittebach and Samarin,
ISBN 0-201-54199-8) mentions a package named draftcopy that prints the
word DRAFT diagonally across each page.
