This is a Kodak issue. The Kodak Libraries can't read all
compression types.
Please add this to config.<device>:

RecvDataFormat:	"1-D MR"

OR

RecvDataFormat:	"2-D MMR"
(this will create smaller files)

You have to enable this, too:

MaxConsecutiveBadLines: (value > 0)
PercentGoodLines: (value > 0)


See 'man hylafax-config' for further hints.
Don't forget to restart HylaFAX and faxgetty.



Best Regards
Bodo
