Well, the first page prints OK and then the transmission stops. sendfax
reports an error :

sendfax: FAILED to transmit 'page_1.g3'.
Transmission error: +FHNG:52 (No response to MPS repeated 3 times)

No, it prints only the first page which is OK.

In case of error the fax prints a report page. In this case it only
prints "Incomplete Reception".

It works, both pages are transmitted without error.

Be careful, your subconscious appears :-) -----

If you want, we can continue to investigate and I am ready to experiment
oher ideas, but the problem is minor for me as I have no problem with
dfaxhigh driver.

Anyway, thank you to pay attention to this problem.
