PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Ricoh fi-8150U A4 Duplex Document Scanner, 50 ppm / 100 ipm, USB 3.2 Only (PA03810-B151) - 1 Year Local Warranty
50 ppm Duplex Scanning, USB Only
The Ricoh fi-8150U is the USB-only model of the fi-8000 A4 ADF series. It scans at 50 pages per minute simplex and 100 images per minute duplex (A4, 200/300 dpi), holds 100 sheets in the ADF and is rated by Ricoh for an expected daily volume of 8,000 sheets.
Direct USB Connection
With a USB 3.2 Gen1x1 interface and no network port, the fi-8150U connects straight to a single workstation, a simple fit for desks where the scanner does not need to be shared on the network.
Handles Mixed Batches, Cards and Booklets
The fi-8150U accepts paper from 20 to 465 g/m², plastic cards up to 1.4 mm, long pages up to 6,096 mm and, in Manual Feed Mode, booklets up to 7 mm thick. Ultrasonic overlap detection and length detection help prevent missed pages.
Drivers for Windows, macOS and Linux
Two CIS sensors with RGB LED light sources capture both sides in one pass at 600 dpi optical resolution. PaperStream IP (TWAIN/ISIS), WIA, macOS (ICA) and Linux (SANE) drivers are supported, and PaperStream Capture and PaperStream ClickScan are supplied for scanning workflows.
