faxing a fax 

An analogy used when fax machines were common to describe a process that gives diminishing returns. When a document is sent between fax machines, the resulting copy is not perfect. If this copy is itself sent to a fax machine, the resulting copy of that copy is even further from the original, and so ad infinitum.
