Re: [efax-users] Efax and Courier V-Everything???



Hi,

USR modems have buggy Class 2.0 implementations.  Try Class 1
with the development version of efax (from www.cce.com/efax/).
It's not guaranteed to work, but it's much more likely.

The message about DIS/DCS length is OK.  It means the fax machine
has more capabilities than were defined when efax was written.
The extra information is ignored.
