    Hunkin and Garrod used the series to show some of their devices they built from parts of machines featured on their programme. The creations, some of which were decorative, others functional, show the potential uses of broken machinery. An extreme example is the giant clock powered by steam. [11]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photocopier

    During the 1980s, a convergence began in some high-end machines towards what came to be called a multi-function printer: a device that combined the roles of a photocopier, a fax machine, a scanner, and a computer network-connected printer. Low-end machines that can copy and print in color have increasingly dominated the home-office market as ...

    The stencil material consists of a very thin polymer film laminated to a long-fiber non-woven tissue. It makes the stencils and mounts and unmounts them from the print drum automatically, making it almost as easy to operate as a photocopier. The Risograph is the best known of these machines.

    The segments roughly divided the MFPs according to their speed in pages-per-minute (ppm) and duty-cycle/robustness. However, many manufacturers [ quantify ] are beginning to avoid the segment definition for their products, as speed and basic functionality alone do not always differentiate the many features that the devices include.

    The IBM 6670 Information Distributor (6670-001) was a combination laser printer and photocopier introduced by IBM. [1] Announced on February 14, 1979, as part of Office System/6, its feature set included two-sided printing. [2] The New York Times described it in 1979 as "A key component of the office of tomorrow."
