Configuring Microsoft Fax
Important
The first time you run the Fax
Configuration Wizard, you may need to
provide information in the Location
Information and the Phone and Modem
Options dialog boxes.
Before you send your first fax, you need to set up your user information. Your
fax cover sheets and fax headers contain this information, some of which is
required by law. The Fax Configuration Wizard opens the first time you try to
send a fax.
To configure Microsoft Fax:
1 Click Start, All Programs, Accessories, Communications, Fax, then click
Fax Console. The Fax Configuration Wizard opens.
2 On the Welcome to Fax Configuration Wizard screen, click Next. The Sender
Information screen opens.
