Henry Budgett Xerography Definition from Encyclopedia Dictionaries & Glossaries
Xerography (or electrophotography) is a dry photocopying technique invented by Chester Carlson in 1938, for which he was awarded on October 6, 1942. Carlson originally called his invention electrophotography. It was later renamed xerography—from the Greek roots xeros "dry" and -graphia "writing"—to emphasize that, unlike reproduction techniques then in use such as cyanotype, this process used no liquid chemicals.
