Hi,

there are no differences between the OLE calls which the fax printer
uses and those you use on perl, but the fax printer runs under the
"security" context of the windows spooling system (haven't figured out
or found documentation what security context this is).

This is definitly an access problem to your registry. At this point
i must leave you alone with this problem. Have a look at the
documentation
for the WHFC Registry entries and on the OLE "Documentation" of
Microsoft
and try to figure out, which parts of the registry may cause the
problem.
