13 Faxing, Ever
As bad a habit as printing is, faxing is infinitely worse. Here, you have the opportunity to {break the paper cycle}, but instead you're continuing it, indeed worsening it by duplicating the paper and possibly racking up long distance telephone charges in the process.
打破纸张周期？
打破用纸周期？还是？

(用)纸循环
感觉全文的意识是说传真不好，跟打印一样是个坏习惯（浪费纸），使用传真就是继续这个（用）纸循环。你有机会打破这个循环，比如你可以用email, scan 等．
这里应该没有 ＂the paper life cycle 纸张生命周期＂的意识．
也不是非常确定，供参考．

停止耗纸循环
因为传真通常的过程是打印->传送->(对方又)打印->传送(给第三方)->(第三方)打印.....，最后甚至还有可能回到最早发送的这一家。
所以我感觉用停止（打破）耗纸循环比较接近。
