October 1985: Xerox announces the Xerox 1038.
The 1038 was designed in Japan, and in Europe, produced at Mitcheldean plant. The copier could produce 25 copies in a minute, and came in four different configurations. All versions had three paper trays with copy size raging from A3 to A6. Then there was optional accessories, including a 10-bin sorter, high capacity paper tray holding up to 2,600 sheets, and four colour copying kits. Available in the field, the latter offer the customer the advantages of printing in blue, red, green and brown as well as black.
I have a 1038 in excellent condition except it is printing light and I do not have the time to tweak it.. My best guess is that it is a 1985 or 1986 model which I got from the small company where I had worked when it came off a 5-year lease. It has all the attachments in working order. I haven’t used it much lately since my computer printer makes better copies and I do not need large quantities of documents. Any market for this museum piece? Located in central NJ. Warren
I have a 1038 that i have had since 1999 I have 5 cases of toner and will never use it all in my life. I am having a toner shading problem no matter what setting I use it is faint. Is there something I need to clean or replace ??Any info would be greatly appreciated. I don’t want to just throw it away. Kevin
