Fax preview problem

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.outlook.fax,microsoft.public.windowsxp.print_fax (More info?)

I have a desktop computer with WinXP Pro and a Dell laptop with WinXP Home.
On both I have installed lately Office 2003
Since then the preview on the laptop is done by Microsoft Document Imaging
and lets me see only the first two pages.
The desktop continues to preview faxes with the old fax preview.
Is there a way to get back on the laptop the standard preview?

Thanks.
I will try it.

Changing the file association for TIF files might have adverse consequences
for faxing from Outlook. I cannot reproduce the original posters findings.
MODI previews all pages. Just use the Thumbnail view.
