Usage Note

Fax is used in Spanish exactly as in English, both for the document and the device. The plural is invariable: fax or faxes (both accepted). In formal business correspondence, enviar un fax means 'to send a fax', though the technology has been largely supplanted by email in most contexts.

Examples

"Te mando el contrato por fax."
