    I see an old xerox 5028 in NCIS and several old HP Laserjet 4050s on desktops too.

    Looks like an old Canon? My wife hates it every time we watch something and I see a copier or printer, I have to stop, rewind and look at it. I see it, I look over at her, she rolls her eyes and says, "Uhhh..must be another copier or printer."

        Haha.... You got me!

        I figured it was a canon or xerox... Total guess....
        First glimpse the ADF looks like an old belt feed Toshiba.

        For those interested, jump to the 2:18 mark in the above video.
        Select settings 1080dpi and 0.25 slow motion play back.
        You can see the copier front cover, I can't make out the machine model as the label is removed.

          Looks like a Canon NP6030 to me.

              First impression was a Canon.
              I thought I got at glimpse of a Canon label that wasn't edited out of the movie.
              I couldn't capture the same single video frame again...

                  Canon NP 6035 would be my guess

                    I think it's too large a finisher for the GP200.

                    The NP6030 was the same frame (I think) as the GP55, which was later replaced by the GP30.

                        The control panel on the NP 6030 doesn't bump out like that, its flush all the way across the front.

                        It looks like a NP 6050. Those had the control panel that bumped out a little. Also, on the finisher there is a small access panel that allowed for manual stapling or moving the bins up/down. If I remember correctly, that panel was not available on the bigger finisher for the NP 6030.

                          Methinks you are correct.
