Re: [hylafax-users] Slow fax output!

Awhile ago, I posted a note about wanting to start faxmodem, and I sent out an email showing this:



/usr/sbin/faxmodem -c '(0,1),(0-5),(0-2),(0-2),0,0,0,(0-7)' ttyS1



Using this string my resume and cover letter fax takes about 15 minutes. I am guessing that it is 4 pages including the cover sheet.



A look at your session log would probably help us help you more to speed this up. That said, I think that this command will disable ECM and thus will disable MMR support, and that's going to make stuff go much slower than it could.


Giulio Orsero replied back to me:


That's right, but, assuming you have latest version, if you use the
modem in class1 you should enable it allowing for maximum
capabilities:
df=0,1,3
ec=1
vr=0-64


so, for a class1 you could use
faxmodem -c '(0-64),(0-5),(0-4),(0-2),(0,1,3),(1),(0),(0-7)' ttyS0



Will this string significantly speed things up? My string is a Class 2 string. Will I have to reconfigure hylafax to accept a new Class 1 string?



If you're using "ModemType: Class1" in your modem config file then just try Giulio's suggestion and see how it goes.
