RICOH AMERICAS CORPORATION INTRODUCES THE
AFICIO SP 5100N BLACK AND WHITE LASER PRINTER

Productivity and Value Rolled into an Easy-to-Use Desktop Printing Solution

West Caldwell, N.J., May 17, 2007 – Ricoh Americas Corporation, a leading provider of digital office equipment, today introduced the Aficio SP 5100N black & white laser printer. With a fast print speed and simple operation, the Aficio SP 5100N is an economical and highly productive solution for small offices and workgroups.

Printing at 45 pages-per-minute (ppm), users can power through print jobs and produce high-quality documents quickly and efficiently. The Aficio SP 5100N prints professional graphics, text and drawings with resolutions equal to 1200 x 1200 dpi. Additionally, the Aficio SP 5100N is able to print large files due to standard 128 MB RAM and a 500MHz CPU and can print PDFs through a PDF Direct Print utility.

The Aficio SP 5100N includes an easy-to-read screen and easy-to-use control panel that lets users quickly manage jobs. The simple paper path and smooth paper feeding and handling of the Aficio SP 5100N virtually eliminates paper jams, enabling production without interruption. Instant e-mail alerts notify users if the printer needs paper, toner, or other attention. Although the Aficio 5100N has a small footprint and fits comfortably on desktops, it has a wide range of paper capabilities that allow users to output letter, proposals and more (up to 8.5” x 14”). The Automatic Duplexing unit keeps the Aficio SP 5100N’s compact design intact.

The Aficio SP 5100N capabilities streamline everyday productivity and protect sensitive data. With an optional Hard Disk Drive, documents can be pass code protected to ensure confidentiality and only released into secure hands. In addition, the competitively priced Aficio SP 5100N builds long-term savings as long-life toner cartridges further reduce the total cost of ownership and the printer’s reliability enables years of hassle-free use.

“At Ricoh we focus on creating products that not only enable users to be more productive, but to feel more secure and confident that their sensitive information is being protected,” said Ron Potesky, vice president, Corporate Product Marketing, Ricoh Americas Corporation. “The Aficio SP 5100N is an ideal printer for small office and workgroups as it incorporates the latest security features and has one of the fastest speeds available in a desktop printer – all at an affordable price.”

The suggested retail price for the Aficio SP 5100N is $1,199. To learn more about Ricoh’s full line of products, please visit www.ricoh-usa.com
