fax receiving problems

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Hi all, I'm having a problem with a fax server at one of my client
site.

I recently installed the SBS 2003 fax server feature with a brand new
USR 325610B (56K Performance Pro Modem). I have a couple of clients
using this same setup with no problems. The driver and firmware have
been updated to the latest version.


We can send fax with no problem. Receiving is a little more tricky.
Some will go thru no problem, others will be partially received, and
this morning while performing some test with a client, were not
received at all. We did some additional testing with the client, and
found out that one of their fax system is a Pitney Bowes 2500MFP, and
that receiving from that device caused our problems. Since I can't ask
them to replace their fax because we can't receive them, I need to
have this fixed on my end. Here;s some log for the errors.


The partially received ones will give me this error in the event
viewer:

The ones I'm not receiving at all will give me this error, and will
not even show in the fax console:

I'm at a loss here, as I already set the answer ring to 2, and
disabled compression on the modem.


It is really important I get this fixed, because most of the failed
faxes are from my clients main supplier: it's an important part of
their business.


I did plug back the old fax machine so they could receive their fax,
but it's only a temporary thing.


Any info will be greatly appreciated.


Thanks,


Stephane
