"SEND end page" is just a logging message.  The corresponding TIFF data 
is the RTC code (theoretically optional in faxing) followed by DLE+ETX.

That's possible, but highly unlikely.  That behavior would violate T.30 
(fax) protocol.  The receiver should at least send DCN (disconnect 
signal).  More likely is that the remote receiver is having problems 
with the data or with the timing of that data and preceding signals.

The "number of pages" is never communicated.  There is no "number of 
pages" communication in fax protocol.  The receiver is supposed to wait 
for the "this is the last page" signal called EOP.  Your logs indicate 
that the "this is not the last page" signal, called MPS, was sent.
