copier
UK: ˈkɒpiə | US: ˈkɑːpiər
n. a machine or device that makes copies of documents or images
n. a person or thing that copies or imitates
The word "copier" combines "copy," derived from the Latin "copia" (abundance, transcript), and the agentive suffix "-er," indicating a person or device performing an action. Originally, "copy" referred to written reproductions, later extending to mechanical duplication. The suffix "-er" (from Old English "-ere") solidifies its role as a tool or individual that replicates.
