Problem Sending Fax

Recommended Posts

Please, we have problem to send fax.

 

- we are trying to send fax from one channel to another in the same board.

- the process appears to be ok (the second channel answers, the process is started)

- but the process continues until 46 seconds receiving. The channel stops, the tiff file received has only 1 Kb (with error) and the caller channel do not stops.

 

When we tried to send to a "real" fax machine the problem appears to be the same: the channel keeps buzy, but the machine do not process anything.

 

I attached the ConfigLine.xml, the last log files etc (please refer to number 40815301 - the receiving channel number).

 

Thanks for your help.

TIF files for Fax sending must be of specific resolution.

 

From http://www.voiceguide.com/vghelp/source/html/fax_intro.htm :

 

The TIFF file must be in "Fax Group 3" format and have a horizontal resolution of 1728 pixels across the page. Vertical pixel count will depends on length of fax page, but a standard page is 2200 pixels long. The DPI resolution of the TIFF file should be 200.

 

Can you .ZIP up and post the C:\FAXENVIO\20110613143141797.tif file from your system?

 

Unzip attachment to get a sample .TIF file that can be faxed. (it is the same file that is provided with VoiceGuide sample fax send/receive scripts in VoiceGuide's \Scripts\Fax\ subdirectory.
