Analogue Copiers

Older copying technology that uses light reflection onto a photosensitive surface with "one scan, one print" limitations.

Detailed Explanation

Analogue copiers are older technology that operate by reflecting light off the original document onto a photosensitive drum or surface. They work on a "one scan, one print" basis, meaning each copy requires a separate scan of the original document. This makes them significantly slower than digital copiers when producing multiple copies. Analogue copiers lack the advanced features of digital machines like memory storage, image manipulation, and network connectivity. Most businesses have transitioned to digital copiers due to their superior speed, features, and capabilities.

Examples
