The fax machine itself uses ECM, undoubtedly. If callers that have quality problems with IAXmodem+HylaFAX don't have problems with the fax machine, then that strongly indicates that something is wrong with your Asterisk setup... corrupting the audio. Usually this is due to resource constriction of the Zap device, zttest scores less than 99.98% is indicative of that situation.

Where should be the problem? Is there any solution for improving
quality? Any tuning in Asterisk or Hylafax? As I see some people use
slinear for iaxmodem and some user use alaw. Which is better?


There is no functional difference between using uLaw, alaw, or slinear... except that using slinear reduces the need for conversion... and thus possibly lessens CPU usage very slightly.
