New Ricoh MP 4054/5054/6054 SP Sneak Peak!

I really wasn't planning on writing this blog tonight, however, sometimes you just need to do what you have to do. 

 

Ricoh Americas seems to be on the verge of launching the new monochrome (black)

MP 2554/3054/3554/4054/5054/6054 series.  I'm betting dollars to doughnuts that Ricoh is using the same print engine for all of these models.  I would also tend to think that the higher end 5054/6054 will have a few additional features, they may even include the 4054 in the mix. Scratch that, the 4054/5054/6054 seem to all have identical features expect for print engine speed.

 

At this time, I don't have any information for the MP 2554/3054/3554 series of systems. Thus, I would expect them to be somewhat de-featured from the 4054/5054/6054 (40, 50 & 60 page per minute print/copy speed) systems.

 

So, what's new and different?

 

  • Duplex Single Pass Color Scanning, scan in color or black 110 pages per minute for simplex (single sided) documents and 180 pages per minute for duplex (two sided) documents. Yipee!!  It's about time, the MP4002 & MP5002 were past their prime over a year ago.
  • Envelopes can be feed from tray two (standard feature)
  • How cool is this, an optional network interface that allows the system to have to IP addresses and reside on two networks.
  • There are five optional finishers, of which two are booklet, two regular finisher and one internal finisher. (have not heard whether the internal is a staple less finisher)
  • We're also going to get a re-designed print driver that is icon based
  • Synchronised LED lights, that will indicate where there is a paper misfeed
  • Scanning to NCP (Netware Core Protocol), first time I've seen this, here's a link to explain
  • 300 g/m² max paper weight from any tray & duplex up to 256 g/m²

Right, there's not that much here, but that's why I called this a "sneak peak", hope to have additional information for everyone soon.  I got my information from Ricoh Australia, here's that link http://www.ricoh.com.au/produc...unctions-black-white

 

I did search for a brochure, however could not find one yet. I did find the operators manual, and you can get that here.

 

One more item, I checked the manual, and there was not a statement on how many original pages would fit in the document feeder. I'm assuming it will have the same specs as the MP C4503 series, this it should have a 220 page document feeder.

 

Now, if Ricoh would only update their wide format line, now that would be a wonder to behold!!
