Ricoh Philippines unveils new Ricoh ProC5200s

RICOH Philippines, a global leader in digital imaging and total office solutions, introduced a significant addition to its family of production printers, the Ricoh ProC5200s, that is set to continue the company’s mission of redefining the standard in print technology.

“With today’s business trend, large corporations with small and frequent commercial print demands are having their own print room or Corporate Reprographics Department (CRD) to reduce their outsourced printing cost. This addresses the needs of urgent print requirements at just the right quantity with high quality outputs,” said Eric Sulit, president and CEO of Ricoh Philippines.

Ricoh is empowering businesses to adapt this trend with the introduction of the Ricoh ProC5200s, a light production printer or commercial production engine designed to help reduce print costs for in-house company print centers and commercial printers. The Ricoh Pro C5200s delivers high-volume and high-quality output with minimal footprint.

The Ricoh Pro C5200s has print speeds of up to 65 pages per minute (ppm) at 1,200 x 4,800 dpi VCSEL quality, and a duty cycle of up to 300,000 pages per month.

Furthermore, the print quality is enhanced by a fusing belt, which provides more consistent transfers and toner adhesion on specialty stocks. It also allows printing across a wide range of media and with a variety of finishing options. “With the Ricoh Pro C5200s series, we are empowering commercial and office printing operations to expand their capabilities and service offerings,” added Mr. Sulit. “This product allows our customers to adapt to the growing demands of their businesses at a reasonable cost”

With a total paper capacity of up to 8,250 sheets and four paper trays available, the Ricoh Pro C5200s series enables users to maintain long stretches of production time even when switching among several media types. This feature combined with the product’s tight registration, saddle-stitching, embedded Paper Library, and folding capabilities, makes it ideal for booklet production that doesn’t slow down for covers or inserts. Optional Cover Interposers and Booklet Finisher options are also available.

Users can also print on thick stock of up to 360 gsm or 13” x 19.2” in size to produce direct mail, menus or other items that must be distinct and durable. It is also ideal for printing unique postcards and envelopes, which can be done by feeding coated and textured paper through the optional media trays.

To further assist users, Ricoh’s optional Smart Operation Panel (SOP) facilitates the flow of information between the Ricoh Pro C5200s series, third-party software and other Ricoh devices. The SOP also ushers workflow automation, including moving the most complex jobs to other devices.
