Hi Anusha,
FAX output is similar to Print output but only the difference is you need to select media as 2 (Fax)
Please fallow the below steps
1.  Materials management-> purchasing-> messages-> output control-> message types-> define message types for PO-> maintain message types for PO
2.  In above step you can create your own output type or take the existing one and select your output type and click on processing routines in dialog structure and assign you  Form against Fax (2)
3. Better to take existing condition table and access sequence
4.  Message determination schema:- Materials management-> purchasing-> messages-> output control-> Message determination schema-> Define message determination for purchase order-> maintain message determination schema for purchase order,   where maintain your condition type to in control data of existing procedure ( or create new procedure and maintain in it)
5.  If you create new procedure assign schema group to purchase order
6.  Under message-> text for messages, maintain text Header and item text for your PO document types
7.  In MN04 maintain condition record for your output type, select any key combination except EDI and enter media as 2(Fax) for your vendor or doc type.
