RICOH INTRODUCES THE AFICIO SP C811DN SERIES
West Caldwell, NJ, January 3, 2006 – Ricoh Corporation, the leading provider of digital office equipment, today launched the RicohÒ AficioÒ SP C811DN Series, a versatile color laser printer solution. Delivering fast print speeds, high-quality graphics and impressive finishing, the Aficio SP C811DN Series is a valuable digital imaging device for organizations of all sizes.
The Ricoh Aficio SP C811DN Series allows affordable in-house production of professional quality prints. Equipped with a 4-bit engine offering 9,600 x 600 dots per inch (dpi) interpolated resolution – producing high-quality text and graphics – the Aficio SP C811DN Series is the ideal solution for graphic-intensive files such as brochures, flyers, presentations, and more. In addition, this series can create documents at a swift 40 pages per minute (ppm) for both Black and White and full-color single as well as double-sided prints due to its standard duplex printing capabilities. The Aficio SP C811DN Series can also output paper sizes up to 11” x 17” and stock up to 120 lb. Index through paper trays, 140 lb. Index through the Bypass Tray, and 90 lb. Index when duplexing.
In an effort to enhance office productivity and reduce time spent on troubleshooting, the Aficio SP C811DN Series provides features such as email alerts that notify users and administrators when supplies are low or when the printer needs attention. Accessing the Aficio SP C811DN Series is also made easier with Web Image Monitor’s Internet-based remote operation panel, enabling the administration of print commands even when users are not in front of the device. Catering to organizations’ individual needs, additional software can be integrated as well via Ricoh’s Embedded Software Architecture.
“For organizations that desire the ability to produce a multitude of documents in-house in order to reduce expenses and streamline document workflow, the Aficio SP C811DN is the perfect solution,” said Ron Potesky, vice president Corporate Marketing, Ricoh Corporation. “Minimizing costs, delivering high-quality prints, and expediting turn around times, this device enables organizations to increase operational efficiency by allowing employees to focus on core business operations.”
To assist companies in the archiving of information, the Aficio SP C811DN Series offers a standard 40GB Hard Disk Drive that enables users to save documents locally and store frequently printed documents right on the device. However, since compliance regulations play a major role in today’s business world, Ricoh equipped the Aficio SP C811DN Series with advanced data encryption capabilities. Ricoh’s hard disk image overwrite solution, DataOverwriteSecuritySystem (DOSS), which automatically overwrites latent data on the systems hard drive after each job, is offered as an optional feature. To protect against the unauthorized sharing of confidential documents, device usage can be remotely monitored and masking patterns can be embedded in documents so that they will appear if a file is copied on enabled Ricoh devices. Additionally, access to documents is limited with administrator and user authentication options.
In order to optimize color and black and white print productivity, the Aficio SP C811DN Series can be combined with the Ricoh IS300e Image Scanner to achieve true multiple-functionality. An additional cost, the Ricoh IS300e Image Scanner is available for the suggested retail price of $3,620.
The suggested retail price of the Aficio SP C811DN Series is $3,999.
