    My elite is using the latest ROM revision... (dated March 96 I think).

You can't use the firmware version 1.12 with HylaFAX. I've posted
the following to the ZyXEL beta-testers list and to ZyXEL:

--start of insert--
Subject: firmware 2.01 DSS1
To: 2864i-testers@zyxel.com

	...
ati1

Elite 2864I DSS1:  V 2.01
Internal fax/modem:  V 1.12
	....
The problems are:
	
1.) As described in the rel.notes the response for ATH is twice OK
    which makes 2.01 unuseable for HylaFAX w/o changing the source code
    of HylaFAX to skip this problem:
    at&f
    OK
    AT&F&O0&B1&S0S18=4S38.3=1S2=042E0V1Q0S0=0H0
    OK

    OK
	....
--end of insert--

(note: do not use "&O0" in the string above for your modem; "&O0
 is only for the ISDN 2864I; the rest of the AT-cmd should show
 the problem on your 2864 too;)
    
    My log is showing the following when I attempt to send a fax

This will not work for your 2864; the values in S18 are changed from
the 1496 to the 2864; see your 2864 manual for the new values;
a working config file is also at http://www.vix.com/hylafax/FAQ/Q65.html

    Anybody know why it's complaining?
    
    Also, when I faxrm the job I get back a message but it says that "No
    transcript is available"
    
    How can I log the session to the modem so I can diagnose the problem?

see the HylaFAX man pages of log(4) and config(4) and the
man pages of your syslogd(1M) for the information how to trace
the modem communication.

Hope it helps;
