Hello, I had a major headache trying to send faxes for 2 weeks now.
Two things helped me: 1. Correct TIF files (received file not always worked for me) 2. Time synchronization e.g. 'ntpdate time.windows.com'. Now %90 of faxes come nice and clean. (10% - incomplete). If you want test TIF file which works - email me directly. Some people stated that 'echotraining=no' in zapata.conf helps. I haven't noticed. Also "|caller" had no impact on my fax tests. Strange. I have another problem - I can't send multipage TIF files - only first page arrives. Nothing helps - no info in Google.
