I also have this Fax Program.  I took a look at the fax directory of 
either sent or received files and they all have the filename:
  FX000011.FAX
  FX000012.FAX
    Etc.

However, this is the "end of the line" file and not the raw info being
sent by the sending program over the SAMBA connection to FxPrint.  Not
sure how one could do what I suggested in the earlier reply to get RAW
output into a file and copy the RAW program output to FxPrint on the 
OS/2 box.

Possibly you could print a simple TEXT file to "file" (something from 
WinOS2-Notepad - print it to a file, try sending it by SAMBA to 
FxPrint.  Then copy the file over to the OS2 box and "copy file.ext  
FxPrint"  - see what you get.  Again, I just suggest, I am not an 
expert here.
