Usage Note
Fotocopiatore is the masculine form, but the feminine fotocopiatrice is far more common in everyday Italian for the office machine. Both are correct, but learners will encounter fotocopiatrice much more often in shops, offices, and manuals. The seed gender 'f' likely reflects fotocopiatrice; the headword here is the masculine variant, so gender is corrected to masculine.
Examples
"Il fotocopiatore è rotto da stamattina."
Natural Translation
The photocopier has been broken since this morning.
