Xerox Innovation

Xerox conducts work in color science, computing, digital imaging, work practices, electromechanical systems, novel materials, linguistics, work practice analysis, and nanotechnology connected to Xerox's expertise in printing and document management. The company consistently builds its inventions into business by embedding them in Xerox products and solutions, using them as the foundation for new business, or licensing or selling them to other entities.

Cutting Through Information Overload
For more than a half a century, Xerox has been in the business of making it easier to get work done.

Differentiation Through Digitization
In 2007, over 15 trillion pages were printed worldwide but less than 10% were produced on digital printers. Xerox’s goal is to bring the value of mass customization to the printing market.

Sustainability
As a leading provider of digital systems, paper, and toner, Xerox plays an important role in influencing the sustainability of our environment.
