Yes the waste toner container could overfill and make a real mess. Not to mention those small plastic gears inside that would strip their cogs! How about the times when the scan return damper would fail so the lamp would slam back against the side and make the cables jump off! Great fun.
Anyone out there that also worked from Goswell Road EC1? I was an engineer covering East London, then later most of Essex.
3107F, was the first product I trained on when I was a new hire in 1978. Good machine but I hated cleaning out the waste toner sump when it over filled and froze up. Restringing the optics cables was a nightmare. Glad I only had to do that a couple of times. Anybody remember the Bonelli baffle retrofit that helped the fuser work better? Every now and then a customer would try to remove the paper tray without lowering the tongue that lifted the paper to the feed position. Usually a good whack to force the tray back in released… Read more »
I was in Rank Xerox field service international HQ in London. The 3107 was built in Venray and field trialled in Paris. I was asked to visit there urgently as they had a serious problem with toner streaks on the drum. I was taken to a copy shop and within a few minutes I knew that we had a potential show-stopper. The marketing prediction was that 5% of the copies would be A3 size and 95% A4. However, there were almost no other copiers with A3 capability. The copy shop used faster machines for their A4 work and so the… Read more »
I was selling Xerox copiers in the Federal Marketplace in the late 1970’s and early 1980’s= it was a decent seller but way overpriced- at that time, the Japanese copiers were coming out with plain paper copying, and Canon, Konica, and others cleaned our clocks on the lower end on price alone. I think it was then that Xerox concentrated on the cash cow 9200’s and all.
Really nice machine i remeber when i must make service to this model and find the two tower of toner in both sides over the transport or fix the registration transport paper jams now im working in Xerox jet really diferent now the Docutech ,4635,dp 180 no exposure lamp no electrometer
I trained on the Xerox 3100 series in 1978 at the XICTMD in Leesburg, Virginia. I’m from St. Louis, Missouri. Anyone know what a Xerox 3107 copier would sell for today? I have one that needs a new home.

Hi I would be interested in purchasing it.
I took my new hire training on one of these; back in 1986, in Cairo,Egypt. It was a very rugged device, all metal gears and sprockets. All timings were achieved mechanically. Just one electric signal: “start print”. It had one large main AC motor, a bicycle like chain that ran all along the machine which was giving drive to all moving components. The return of the exposure lamp was achieved via a loaded spring mechanism. It contained one unique paper movement monitoring system: the motion sensor. Never existed in any other models (beside the 2600). That system – along with… Read more »
I also worked for Xerox Egypt from 1980 to 1983.
3107 was a great copier.
Always remember the big lever to adjust the Platen between A4 and A3.
One of the better, more productive small-office machines Xerox ever produced.
