means A machine that uses light, static electricity, and heat to reproduce text or images from a document onto paper.

from From photo- (Greek 'phos', light) plus 'copier', from Latin 'copia' meaning abundance or plenty — fittingly, since the whole device exists to take one thing and make plenty of it. The technology itself was originally called 'xerography', from Greek 'xeros' (dry) and 'graphein' (to write), describing its dry, inkless process using static charge and toner — hence 'Xerox', the brand name that nearly swallowed the generic word.
