That's right, the Courier doesn't implement Rockwell's proprietory (and
according to B.J. Guillot, author of BGFAX, non-formally documented)
format.  Doesn't the manual make that clear?

As I've just asked Arthur, who besides Rockwell does?

Not common enough for what?  Can't you find any Class 2.0 Fax software?

I hear Binkley's internal fax reception works fine with Class 2.0, so
there's at least one free program you could use, at least for reception. 
Then of course there's BGFAX, send and receive both, for U$25, no?  Ask
Hamish ..
