Actually I knew them only as Rank Xerox many years ago, when they were
commonly known as office suppliers, e.g. photo copiers and printers.

Also, Fuji Xerox in Japan, ca. 1962, initially a distributor of Rank
Xerox products.
For quite awhile, many of Xerox-branded small office copiers, were, in

As of last year, Fuji (Fujifilm) has gone its own way, devoid of the
Xerox tie-in.

was a regional thing.
I certainly saw a British telephone in one of the shots!
