Re: [hylafax-users] factors in bad scan lines

Yes, it does.  It happens whether I use xonxoff or rtscts.  I haven't tried
none.

I've got the AT and AT+F command set summary.  I've attached the S Register
command set below.  I really don't know what I'm looking for...  so if
you're really *that* bored, I've attached them below.  ;)

Copper.  No phone system on the fax line.

I tend to believe that you're right, though.  Either we're looking at a
flow control issue or there is a sensitivity factor that isn't set
properly.  Maybe both...
