While printing a document to YajHFC printer/fax driver the document appears in the windows printerspooler. But there it stays/hangs. YajHFC does not pick it up to send it. Windows 10 pro 21H1, YajHFC 0.6.3, Ghostscript 9.20, Java 8 Upodate 291

Same issue here. It's suddenly started happening on one workstation.

This post is old, but I also found a google discussion group with the same topic. I have the same issue. Did someone find a solution or can recommend a win printer for HYLAFAX that is runnin in 2023 ?

Sadly I could not reproduce this issue, so it is hard to debug for me.

I can offer the following workaround, however: You can enable a network printer "emulation" under Options->printer port in YajHFC. This "network printer" can then be added to Windows (standard TCP/IP port). If you print to it and YajHFC is running, it should open the send fax dialog as normal.
