I have the same problem. The faxsend command part of the Hylafax package
(under /var/spool/bax/bin) is actually a wrapper to choose between usual
modems and faxCAPI modems:

#!/bin/sh
#
# This script is a wrapper to call the correct faxsend
# program, depending of the modem type
#
PARA=$*
SENDFAX=/usr/lib/fax/faxsend

m_found="no"
while [ $# -gt 0 ]; do
    case $1 in
        "-m")
            m_found="yes"
            ;;
        faxCAPI*)
            if [ "$m_found" = "yes" ]; then
                SENDFAX=/usr/bin/c2faxsend
            fi
            m_found="no"
            ;;
        *)
            m_found="no"
            ;;
    esac
    shift
done

$SENDFAX $PARA

I added commands to have an exact idea of what is passed as parameters
to c2faxsend, and it is as example:
c2faxsend -m faxCAPI sendq/q12

which makes sense. The problem is that this command fails immediately
with message

# c2faxsend -m faxCAPI sendq/q12
usage: c2faxsend.sav [-f format] [-C cfile] [-c param] [-m dev]
                [-d number] [-P mailadr] [-v] [-V] [file(s)]
        -f: Specify the output format. Allowed types are:
                 HYLAFAX (default), TIFF, SFF, G3
        -C: Name and path of the config file
        -c: One Entry from the config-file of type: {value}:{data}
        -m: Virtual device name only needed for Hylafax. Default:
faxCAPI
        -P: Fax Polling. At the end pollrcvd with "mailadr" is called
        -v Start in verbose mode
        -V Show version information
        file(s): Depending on the format(-f) switch.
                 HYLAFAX: one qfile
                 SFF: one sff file
                 TIFF: one or more tiff file(s)

even if the parameters looks to me perfectly correct.
I even ran this command with "strace" to try to figure out what's wrong,
but I didn't found the reason of such behaviour.
Maybe the c2faxsend command is broken ? As it is proprietary software,
I'm stucked here.
I logged the output of this command when called by HylaFax suite, and it
is the error message above.
