Prior to the advent of the photocopier, making a duplicate of any document (such as a type written page) involved either a) using carbon paper to make a rather messy and poor quality copy as you typed, or b) hand copying the document itself. Before computerized word processing, documents were either hand written, or typed. Before the typewriter, they were handwritten. In the 'olden' days before any mechanical writing devices (and discounting the printing press, which was not really an individual's tool) the only way to get a copy of a document was to hand-copy it. Monks and clerks or scribes were an entire class of people who did nothing but reproduce documents.

While specific statistics on the percentage of photocopier faults caused by people sitting on them are not widely documented, such incidents are considered rare and often anecdotal. Most copier malfunctions typically stem from mechanical issues, paper jams, or improper use rather than intentional misuse like this. However, sitting on a photocopier can lead to significant damage, both to the machine and to the individual, and is generally discouraged in office environments.

Renting a photocopier for a shop or workplace is becoming increasingly common as many people need access to one. Approved photocopiers is the name of one company that supplies them.
Shoelaces were invented long before people bothered to keep records of such things.
Before the refrigerator was invented, people used iceboxes, which were essentially big coolers with a block of ice. Even before that, food was preserved by salting, curing, smoking, drying, and canning.
