There are some problems in earlier releases that cause it to either falsely report an error or not to fax correctly. Also, when installing, overide the modem type selection and tell the MCC installer that the Sportster is a type 1 modem. If you have the misfortune to use Word 6 turn off the option to add the fax stuff to the bottom of the file menu and let MCC swap the words Fax for Print for you when you hold down the hot key. (ie Fax� and Fax Setup). I don't know if the fault lies with USR or their distributors but I work for a dealer and we are still receiving Sportsters with MCC 1.0 months after 1.1 was released.
