Creating Fax Logos

Use the Incoming Fax Status Queue to create logo images for all of your company's branches. After you assign the logos to branches, the logos display on the cover sheets of the faxes you send.

To create a fax logo:

  1. With copy of the logo or letterhead in hand, do the following:

  1. Fax a copy of the logo to the VSI*FAX Gold modem number. Be sure to set the resolution on the fax machine to fine.

The system sends the image to the Incoming Fax Status Queue and assigns in as the image type.

  1. From the System > Printers menu, select Incoming Fax Status Queue to display the Incoming Fax Status Queue screen.

Note: If prompted, log on to the character-based system.

  1. Select the logo image and use the Make Logo hot key to display the Make Logo screen.

The system populates all the fields except File Name with default entries.

  1. Edit the following fields as needed:

Field

Description

Top

Number of inches from the top of the page to the top of the logo. The default value is .50 inches. If the default value does not match your measurement, enter your measurement.

Height

Height of the logo in inches. The default value is 2.00 inches. If this is not compatible with your measurement, enter the height you calculated.

Left Margin

Distance from the left edge of the page to the beginning of the logo. The default value is 0.00 inches. Do not change this field.

Lines

Number of lines used by the logo, based on the height of the logo. The system populates this field. To increase the space between the logo and the text that follows, increase this number.

File Name

Enter a name for the logo. The name can be up to 12 alphanumeric characters with no spaces.

  1. Use the Fax hot key to display the Fax Memo screen.

  2. Send the fax to yourself.

The system returns you to the Make Logo screen.

  1. Review the fax.

The fax displays the logo image. Below the logo is a dashed line across the page. This line indicates where the text on fax cover sheet begins. Check the amount of space between the bottom of the logo and the dashed line.

If the logo is not satisfactory, try other measurements and send another test fax. Repeat as necessary until the logo spacing is satisfactory.

  1. Once the logo is satisfactory, press Esc to save the logo and return to the Incoming Fax Status Queue screen.

The system changes the file type to logo.

Note: To view all the fax logos stored in the queue, use the Type hot key and select the logo option.
