Overview of fax cover pages

When you send a fax, you can include a cover page with the fax. A fax printer normally provides several cover pages that you can include with your faxed documents or messages. Each fax cover page has fields that display informationsuch as names, addresses and telephone numbersfor both the sender and the recipient. You probably entered the sender information when you installed your fax client, but you can also change your sender information in the Fax Properties dialog box.

Existing cover pages have to be added to the Fax Properties dialog box before you can use them. Personal cover pages for a fax client must be created with the Windows NT Fax Cover Page Editor on an NT Server or Workstation computer. You can convert cover pages created with the Windows 95 Fax Cover Page Editor for use with your fax client by opening and then resaving them with the Windows NT Fax Cover Page Editor.

Your organization may not permit you to use personal cover pages with a particular fax printer. This is the case if your personal cover pages are not listed when you print a fax.
