Xerography, a form of Photography using electrostatic toner transfer. A photoconductive drum is first electrostatically charged, then it is exposed to the light of the image which removes the electrostatic charge only in the illuminated areas, then the toner powder is applied to the drum and sticks to the areas that are still electrostatically charged, then the toner powder is transferred off the drum to a sheet of paper by another electrostatic charge. The paper carrying the toner powder then passes through an "oven" which melts the toner bonding it to the paper.

What is a Xerox machine?
In the strictest sense, a Xerox machine is a machine that is manufactured or sold by the Xerox Corporation or one of its affiliates, such as Fuji Xerox. The word "Xerox" is a registered trade mark and in that sense can only be used in connection with products of the Xerox Corporation. In common usage, the term "Xerox machine" is used by many to mean any machine that makes a photocopy using the xerographic process that involves dry ink, electrostatic charges, a light-sensitive photoreceptor surface, and heat or pressure fusing of the dry ink to the paper. The photocopy manufacturing industry tries to minimize this use, however, for two reasons. Xerox Corporation wants to maintain control of its trade mark and prevent it going the way of the term "hoover" in the UK or "aspirin" in the US. Most of its competitors would prefer that their products not be associated in the public language with the name of a competing manufacturer.

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.
