"Xerox" is a registered trademark of the Xerox Corporation, so the phrase "Xerox machine" literlally means any machine that has been trade marked and sold by or for the Xerox Corporation. The word "photocopier" is a term meaning any device that uses light to make a copy, and usually means a machine that uses dry ink, plain paper, and provides its copies quickly after the subject it exposed. Since Xerox Corporation sells many machines that do not make copies, and many companies, other than Xerox Corporation, make and sell machines that make photocopies, the two terms can not be used interchangably.
The word Xerox is short for the Xerox Corporation and is also a trademark for that corporation. As an adjective it can also be used to reference a particular product marketed by Xerox Corporation or its affiliate, Fuji Xerox Corporation. The word is used incorrectly by some as a verb to mean "make a copy," but as a trademark the word is a proper noun and not a verb.
