Permissions on 2003 shared fax

I am doing a custom app in VBA (inside Excel) to automate the faxing of worksheets. I'm using the Microsoft Fax Service Extended COM Type Library. My client station is Windows XP Pro.

code clip:
---
Dim objFaxServer As New FAXCOMEXLib.FaxServer
objFaxServer.Connect strServer
---

When I'm logged in as an administrator of the domain, everything works fine and successfully faxes out. But when I am logged in as USER1 (a regular user of the domain), I get an error "80070005 access denied" on the connection line.

When logged in as USER1, I can successfully fax out using the shared fax printer driver (which would indicate to me that USER1 has proper permissions to use the shared fax). But everytime I try faxing using code, it errors out saying access denied - unless I'm logged in as an administrator.

Has anyone else ran into this problem? Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,
Sheldon
