As you pointed above, probably the sendfax command is
called from some script created by Bull. Faxing
printed files it's not what we can call a HylaFAX
feature, since you run the sendfax command. If you
want make your own system, just make a script that
intercept the print job and call the sendfax command.
If you want an example, check this section at the
