Xerox unveiled a new desk-top copier.

The Xerox 1025, brought out in a bid to improve the company’s position in the highly competitive low-volume copier market, replaces the Xerox 1035, introduced just two years ago, and closely resembles a machine introduced in Japan last year by the company’s Japanese affiliate, Fuji Xerox. The machine, which makes up to 21 copies a minute, also will be the first Xerox copier to be introduced in China. It costs $2,595 stripped down and as much as $5,195 with extra features. Xerox said it is already taking orders on the West Coast, with nationwide ordering scheduled to start May 1.
