Xerox

The use of technology, employee retention and HR development has become key with all business today, because there has been such a change in the work force today.

In addition, the workforce at Xerox has become very different since the acquisition of Affiliated Computer Services, changing the importance of HR and requiring different procedures.

Xerox is short for the legal name of the company, Xerox Corporation.

Xerox is also a registered trademark owned by the Xerox Corporation and use to refer to the products of that company.

Xerox is also an adjective used to describe a product of the Xerox Corporation.

The word is sometimes incorrectly used as a verb or common noun in place of the correct generic terms "copy" or "photocopy."

In a copier or printer manufactured by the Xerox Corporation, the charge is placed on the photoreceptor by passing it under a charged wire. No flash is used for that purpose. Some copiers do use a flash lamp to illuminate the document to be copied, but that is quite a different thing from "spreading the charge."

Xerox was ranked 152 in 2010, 2009 Revenue was $ 15,179 million, P/L $ 485 million

Yes, Xerox PARC is located in the US. It is on a hillside in Palo Alto, California. PARC stands for Palo Alto Research Center.

The xerographic process was first successfully demonstrated by Chester A. Carlson in New York City in 1938.

After some 20 years of development work, the first fully automated plain paper copier was offered for sale by the Haloid-Xerox Company of Rochester, NY, (later the Xerox Corporation) in 1959. During the early-mid 1950s some semi-manual applications of the xerographic process were also sold by Haloid-Xerox.

Ann Mulcahy retired from Xerox Corporation in 2009.

The Xerox Corporation web site has numerous pictures of Xerox copiers, and other products. Just follow the link in the Related Links, below, hover over the "Products" tab and click on the "see all" link under "Copiers."

Since mid-2009, the CEO of Xerox Corporation has been Ursula Burns.

There are 10 reams of paper in a standard carton of letter-sized Xerox branded paper. However, there are also cartons that hold only 5 reams of letter paper, and larger paper sizes are also packed with a smaller number of reams per carton.

It certainly was one for many years, but is probably not now considered to be a blue chip firm.

The process called xerography was invented in New York City and was brought to market as the Xerox Copier by the Xerox Corporation, a US corporation based initially in Rochester, NY, and later in Connecticut.

Xerox is the Xerox Corporation, founded in 1906 as the Haloid Photographic Company in Rochester, NY, and now headquartered in Norwalk, CT. The company's stock symbol is XRX.

Chester F. Carlson invented the Xerographic process used in Xerox machines in 1938 in Astoria, Queens, New York City. After decades of develpment the first Xerox Machine, the first fully automated copier, called the 914 was offered for sale in 1959. Xerography is a system of dry writing which uses special powder, static elestricity, and a light-sensitife semi-conductor to make a photographic image or copy.

A Xerox machine works by using a combination of light, electricity, and toner to create copies of documents. The original document is scanned using a light-sensitive drum, which creates an electrical charge in areas with ink. The charged areas attract toner, which is then transferred onto a piece of paper and fused using heat to create a copy of the original document.

Xerox is the name of a large company that was founded, not invented.

The xerographic process used in many copiers and printers that are made by several different companies was invented in 1938 by Chester A. Carlson.

The name of the Xerox Corporation came from the name of the process the company commercially introduced in the late 1950s. That was called "xerography" and is derived from two Greek roots - "xeros" for dry and "graphos" for writing. So xerography means "dry writing." Since all methods of making photocopies prior to that time required the use of "wet" chemicals, this was a highly descriptive name.

I'm unable to display images as I am a text-based platform. The Xerox Star was one of the first commercial computers to feature a graphical user interface. It was released in 1981 and had a desktop metaphor with icons, windows, and a mouse for interaction.

The process of recording x-ray images on Xerox paper is called X-ray xerography. It was an advance in its day, but has been made obsolete by the development of digital x-ray systems that record the x-ray images directly in digital form for display on a computer monitor.

Ethernet was a trademark of Xerox Corp., which relinquished the trademark when it was standardized by IEEE as IEEE 802.3. As it is no longer a trademark, Ethernet no longer needs to be capitalized, though it is still common to do so. The term has also come into wider use as new standards have emerged, as in "wireless Ethernet."

The dry paper copier, or photocopier, uses the photoelectric effect as its basic working principle.

The process is to spray electric charge upon the smooth surface of a semiconductor and then flash an image to be copied onto this surface. The light causes the plate to discharge in that local area. When pigment powder is sprinkled over the plate it sticks to the charged spots and falls off the discharged spots. The plate is then placed in contact with a blank sheet of paper to which the powder is transferred. Then the paper is heated under pressure to stick the permanently pigment to the paper.

When people use the term "Xerox machine" they usually refer to a copier or a printer. In that sense, a Xerox machine is used to make copies of documents, or images of other small objects that can be placed on the platen, or to print the output from a computer or facsimile (Fax) machine

It can take around with you

A "Xerox machine" is any machine made or marketed by the Xerox Corporation. Xerox Corporation markets a wide variety of machines that perform different functions and operate on widely different principles. It is not possible to say that all of them use any one thing in common, except, perhaps, electricity.

Many people incorrectly say "xerox machine" when they mean to say "copier."

Copiers use light to illuminate the original, and light to paint the image on the photoreceptor drum. Light can be described as consisting of "rays."
