I was the 1005 color copier program manager. Xerox was a great company, have many good memories of those days.
The 1005 color copier was short lived in the US market. The superior image quality and reliability of LASER imaging was just around the corner. It was developed in Japan where it was available for a couple of years prior to it’s launch in the US.
Although it retained light imaging, it was a significant improvement over the 13 year old 6500. Especially innovative yet simple in concept was the non bouncing/non moving developer housings, as compared to the bouncing/moving and problematic 6500 housings.
