Actually, the REAL culprit in Xerox(tm) maintenance problems is the ink
going everywhere; their dry ink particles are so carefully manufactured
that they elude just about every filter ever installed in commercial
equipment.  Want to destroy a Vax really easily?  Install a Xerox
laserprinter next to it, and watch as new employees try to change the
toner and developer.

This problem, of course, has been solved by the ever-enterprising
Japanese; they now make a laserprinter with a cold-fuser ink technology
that leaves behind far less ink to blow around.
