Sorry.  Comment "s1:345:respawn:/bin/sh /usr/bin/fax answer" still could
not solve the problem.  The modem was locked.  (As ROOT, no problem)

Test result as follows;
KDE desktop
Konsole terminal

$ fax send 28382035 /home/satimis/print.ps.001

fax: version 0.9001114a7 (30 Jan 2002)
Now sending fax to T28382035
efax: Tue May 27 12:59:50 2003 efax v 0.9a-001114 Copyright 1999 Ed
Casas
efax: 59:50 opened /dev/modem

It hanged here.  


Closing Konsole terminal

Remark: Do you know how to unlock (free) the modem without reboot PC. 
Thanks
