Digital versus Analogue?
Digital copiers read the original using a CCD unit, which converts the optical data into an electronic form. It’s then processed to ensure optimum copy quality before a laser writes this information onto the photoconductor. This is a similar process to the way Laser printers work. Analogue copiers use a series of mirrors and lens to direct the light reflected from the original to the photoconductor’s surface to create the image.
