One thing that's important to mention here: We get unpredictable results
if the fax is transmitted entirely over VOIP, if the fax passes a
regular telephony channel once it works fine but if it's purely VOIP,
transmission errors occur. This is probably a timing problem, but we
haven't been able to solve it yet


It's not a timing problem, it's a "that just happens when you do faxing over typical VoIP channels" problem. The reason it happens is because of jitter... and more specifically, packet loss. On UDP communications packets are not retransmitted if they get dropped by a router or switch or hub. You can't just take a data stream and chop out small chunks of it here and there and expect the receiving end to be okay with it.
