XEROX CORPORATION

$150,000,000
5.91% MEDIUM-TERM NOTES DUE APRIL 1, 2037

The Medium-Term Notes of Xerox Corporation (the "Company") offered hereby (the 
"Notes") will mature on April 1, 2037. Interest on the Notes will be payable 
semiannually in arrears on April 1st and October 1st of each year, commencing 
October 1, 1997, through and including the date of Maturity (each an "Interest 
Payment Date").  The Notes are subject to repayment at the option of the 
Holders thereof on April 1, 1998 and every April 1st thereafter (each an 
"Annual Optional Repayment Date") upon at least 30 calendar days' prior 
written notice.  If, after the early repayments at the option of the Holders 
of the Notes on an Annual Optional Repayment Date, the aggregate principal 
amount of the Notes outstanding immediately thereafter is $15,000,000 or less, 
the Company may elect to redeem the Notes in whole and not in part on the 
following Annual Optional Repayment Date upon at least 30 calendar days' prior 
written notice.  See "Certain Terms of the Notes -- Redemption and Repayment".  

The authorized denominations of the Notes will be $250,000 or any integral 
multiple of $5,000 in excess thereof.

The Notes will be represented by one or more global securities (the "Global 
Securities") registered in the name of a nominee of The Depository Trust 
Company, as depositary (the "DTC"). Beneficial interests in the Global 
Securities will be shown on, and transfers thereof will be effected only 
through, records maintained by the DTC (with respect to participants' 
interests) and its participants.  Except as described herein, Notes in 
definitive form will not be issued. The Notes will trade in DTC's Same-Day 
Funds Settlement System until maturity (or earlier redemption or repayment) 
and secondary market trading for the Notes will therefore settle in 
immediately available funds.  All payments of principal and interest on the 
Notes will be made by the Company in immediately available funds.
 
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SECURITIES AND 
EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR BY ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION NOR HAS THE 
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION PASSED 
UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS PRICING SUPPLEMENT, OR THE ACCOMPANYING 
PROSPECTUS AND PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A 
CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

CERTAIN PERSONS PARTICIPATING IN THIS OFFERING MAY ENGAGE IN TRANSACTIONS THAT 
STABILIZE, MAINTAIN OR OTHERWISE AFFECT THE PRICE OF THE NOTES, INCLUDING 
STABILIZING AND SYNDICATE COVERING TRANSACTIONS.  FOR A DESCRIPTION OF THESE 
ACTIVITIES, SEE "PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION".

                         CERTAIN TERMS OF THE NOTES
 
GENERAL

     The following description of the Notes supplements and, to the extent 
inconsistent therewith, supersedes the descriptions of the terms and 
provisions of the Notes set forth under "Description of Notes" in the 
accompanying Prospectus Supplement and "Description of the Debt Securities" in 
the accompanying Prospectus, to which reference is hereby made. Certain 
capitalized terms used herein are defined in such Prospectus and Prospectus 
Supplement.
 
     The Notes will mature on April 1, 2037. Interest on the Notes will be 
payable semiannually in arrears on April 1st and October 1st of each year, 
commencing October 1, 1997 (each an "Interest Payment Date").  The Regular 
Record Date with respect to each Interest Payment Date will be the 15th 
calendar day (whether or not a Business Day) prior to the corresponding 
Interest Payment Date.  Interest on the Notes will be calculated based on a 
year of 360 days consisting of twelve months of 30 days each.  If any payment 
of principal or interest is due on a day that is not a Business Day, that 
payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day.  No additional 
interest will accrue as a result of the delay in payment.  For purposes of the 
offering made hereby, "Business Day", as used herein and in the accompanying 
Prospectus Supplement, means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is 
neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions are authorized 
or required by law, regulation or executive order to be closed in The City of 
New York.

     The authorized denominations of the Notes will be $250,000 or any 
integral multiple of $5,000 in excess thereof.

REDEMPTION AND REPAYMENT
 
     The Notes are subject to repayment at the option of the Holders thereof 
on the Interest Payment Date occurring on April 1, 1998 and every April 1st 
thereafter (each an "Annual Optional Repayment Date"), at 100% of their 
principal amount, together with accrued interest to the date of redemption, 
upon at least 30 calendar days' prior written notice to the Company.

     If, after the early repayments at the option of the Holders of the Notes 
on an Annual Optional Repayment Date, the aggregate principal amount of the 
Notes outstanding immediately thereafter is $15,000,000 or less, the Company 
may elect to redeem the Notes in whole and not in part on the following Annual 
Optional Repayment Date upon at least 30 calendar days' prior written notice 
to the Holders thereof, at 100% of their principal amount, together with 
accrued interest to the date of redemption.

     For purposes of this section, if April 1st is not a Business Day, it 
shall be deemed to refer to the next succeeding Business Day.

                           PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
 
     Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Selling Agency 
Agreement dated October 25, 1996, as supplemented by the Terms Agreement dated 
March 26, 1997, the Company has agreed to sell to Deutsche Morgan Grenfell 
Inc. ("DMG"), as principal, and DMG has agreed to purchase from the Company 
all of the Notes if any are purchased.  DMG proposes initially to resell the 
Notes to one or more investors at the public offering price set forth on the 
cover of this Pricing Supplement.  After the initial public offering, the 
public offering price may be changed.

                                  PS-2

<PAGE>

     DMG may engage in stabilizing and syndicate covering transactions in 
accordance with Rule 104 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Rule 104 
permits stabilizing bids to purchase the underlying security so long as bids 
do not exceed a specified maximum. Syndicate covering transactions involve 
purchases of Notes in the open market after the distribution has been 
completed in order to cover syndicate short positions. Stabilizing and 
syndicate covering transactions may cause the price of the Notes to be higher 
than it would otherwise be in the absence of such transactions. These 
transactions, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.
 
     The Company has agreed to indemnify DMG against certain liabilities, 
including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
