Ricoh fi-8290 A4 Duplex ADF + Flatbed Scanner
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Ricoh fi-8290 A4 Duplex Document Scanner with Flatbed, 90 ppm / 180 ipm, USB 3.2 & Gigabit Ethernet (PA03810-B501) - 1 Year Local Warranty
90 ppm ADF and an A4 Flatbed in One Scanner
The Ricoh fi-8290 is the fastest model of the fi-8000 flatbed range. Its 100-sheet ADF scans at 90 pages per minute simplex and 180 images per minute duplex (A4, 200/300 dpi), while the built-in A4 flatbed takes books, bound files and fragile originals that should not go through a feeder. Ricoh rates it for an expected daily volume of 13,000 sheets.
PFU Clear Image Capture
The ADF uses two CIS sensors with RGB LED light sources to capture both sides in one pass, and the flatbed uses a colour CCD sensor with a white LED, all at 600 dpi optical resolution. A flatbed scan takes 1.7 seconds at 200/300 dpi. Operating power is 30 W or less (Eco mode 17 W).
Handles Mixed Batches, Cards and Booklets
The ADF accepts paper from 20 to 465 g/m², plastic cards up to 1.4 mm and long pages up to 6,096 mm; in Manual Feed Mode it takes booklets less than 7 mm thick. Ultrasonic overlap detection and length detection catch double feeds, while image monitoring and Intelligent Sonic Paper Protection (iSOP) help protect originals from damage.
USB and Gigabit Ethernet Built In
Connect by USB 3.2 Gen1x1 or share the scanner on the network over the built-in 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet port. PaperStream IP (TWAIN/ISIS), WIA and Linux (SANE) drivers are supported, and PaperStream Capture and PaperStream ClickScan are supplied for scanning workflows.
