101 machines, filed by speed

The Big Matrix · Every Machine 1990–2000 04

Every machine, filed by speed

Alphabetical by marque was for the briefcase; ascending copies-per-minute is for the soul. One hundred and one machines, five speed segments — the red rails are the briefcase’s tabbed dividers, reset in ink. Grey italics mean unverified; the honesty policy is footnoted overleaf.

Five machines arrived without a speed anyone could defend — the brochures went to landfill and took the numbers with them. Filed here, unranked.

The honesty policy — a footnote

Grey italics mean unverified. Where a year, speed or feeder could not be pinned to a period source, the research department prints the doubt rather than the guess — hence “unv.”, the tildes, and the ≈ class values, which are sorted at their nominal speed and trusted no further than that. Rival publications rounded up. We italicise.

On the colour machines filed under Personal: a 1990s colour laser ran single-digit colour copies per minute, so the CLC-700 and CF900 sit in the desktop segment on arithmetic, not dignity. The briefcase did not negotiate.
