History of Xerox Copiers | The Henry Ford’s Innovation Nation

The Xerox 914 was the first commercially successful automatic office copier. Using Chester Carlson’s xerography process, documents were produced electrostatically, using powdered toner. This copier weighed 650 pounds and made one copy every 26 seconds on paper up to 9 x 14 inches. The 914 also came with a “scorch eliminator“ -- a small fire extinguisher for taming fires caused by overheating. Season 4 Episode 92.
