I heard an old story about that:

Seems a guy was getting lots of spam faxes so he printed a full black page, and copied it several times. Then he taped them all together in a loop going through his fax machine, sending it back to the spam number.

Concept was that it would send a continuous black image and overload the spammer's fax machine and quickly burn through it's ink. No idea if it's true or just a story.
But I still like it.
