You're comparing an analog copier to a laser copier/printer. Analog copiers were mostly metal, used metal parts and components,large drums,gears and rollers as opposed to a Laser copier/printer that utilizes mostly plastic, has smaller drums, plastic gears and its manufactured to be more than a stand alone copier.

This guy's pretty good. He tears a sheet from the roll of brown paper, sticks it in the paper cutter, one slice, and it's the perfect size and he didn't even measure anything. Just did it by eyesight. Fantastic!

If you believe that, you probably don't realise that more than likely it took them many, many attempts to get those three sheets of paper through the machine as the film shows. That model was a paper obstacle course, as any older Xerox tech will tell you. Oh yes, it was NOT recommended to try to use brown paper either, a Xerox tech mantra, always use the correct 80 GSM long grain paper, otherwise expect paper jams. On that model, expect a fire when the paper stalls under the open heater fuser elements, ( oversize electric toaster !).

Have you never used a paper cutter? They have an embossed grid at 1/2" intervals. It takes a split second to cut a sheet down to 8 1/2 x 11.

I went to work for the National Library of Medicine in 1962, and about 8 months after that I was temporarily assigned to the Surgeon General's Advisory Committee on Smoking and Health that produced the ground breaking report on smoking issued in January 1964. . The Committee had to beat out the Pentagon for a 914 copier because they were so rare in government at the time and you had to get special approval to get one. We kept that 914 busy day and night 7 days a week for the 7 or 8 months I worked for the Committee. One of my jobs when arriving at work was to take the drum out of the copier and clean it (with alcohol) and then polish it. For the latter we used Brasso (sp?). The entire process took about 20-30 minutes, mostly to let the Brasso polish dry before buffing the drum. I have no idea how many total copies we put on that machine over the short time I worked on the project, but I;m guessing close to a quarter million because after every 100,000 copies the machine had to be serviced by a Xerox technician -- back then you could not buy the copie, you only rented them, and the service was part of the rental agreement. The machine was a beast, weighing close to 700 lbs -- compare that to today to a copier (ink jet or otherwise) that can easily fit on your desk and probably weighs no more than 20 lbs. and some costing under $100.

BusinessPrints ..... Very funny. Do you have enough space ? it is the size of an average office desk and chair. You will also need a lot of patience, I doubt many users would put up with its outdated idiosyncrasies. The image quality would not stand up today, if your present copier produced quality as low, you would ditch it in a heartbeat, for instance, it would not copy the slightest of solid area, even heavy bold type.
