Help your students access, print and share with the MFP for Education


Help your students access, print and share with the MFP for Education

College is a fast-moving, information-intensive place for students who are balancing class, work, group projects, on-campus organizations and more. They rely on technology to work for them and help them stay organized, keep up with due dates, class assignments, group meetings, discussions and more. Accessing and printing assignments, information and documents is crucial to a student’s success.
When students need to access documents and print, they need it to be fast, easy and just plain work. Broken printers, empty paper trays and malfunctioning card readers can cause major setbacks for students.
That’s why we designed the MFPs for Education specifically for the college student and the various printing and document-sharing tasks they’ll encounter during their college careers — making information sharing one less thing for them to think about.
Unattended printers located in campus common areas like labs and libraries can become damaged through irregular use. With our MFP’s for Education, you can help combat these mishaps and extend the life of the printer by:
Protecting paper from misuse
A sheet to scribble something on here, or an extra sheet or two there, and the consistent use of paper taken from a communal printer can really add up. With the MFP’s for Education, each of the individual paper trays are secured with a key lock — helping to keep paper in its proper place within the printer. 
Ensuring the correct paper is used
As creative as students are, not every printer is always set up to print on a their desired media. The MFP’s for Education comes equipped with lockable paper trays and a seal for the bypass tray that helps secure the paper feed sources and help prevent damage from incompatible paper — decreasing downtime and increasing equipment uptime and availability.
Keeping card readers in place
Add an optional bracket to ensure the card reader and or keyboard stay in place, so you can release documents to authorized users via a PIN, password or proxy card. Because the user who submitted the print job is present at the MFP when the output is produced, you can help keep private or confidential information secure.
With the Higher Education MFPs, students, faculty and staff can also access and share information using the Cloud Education Package. This optional tool lets users connect to popular education cloud packages such as PrintCloud, Blackboard Learn™1, Google Drive™, Microsoft® Office 365, Canvas™ and Evernote®. Help your students access the documents they need — right at their fingertips — just by touching an icon on the MFP and logging in
Students can:  
•           Store digital copies of documents
•           Access documents from any device
•           Share documents with other students and faculty

Scan to USB/SD - RICOH MFP Feature

Scan to USB/SD is a Ricoh scan function enabling users to scan documents directly to a USB memory device or an SD card. How does it work? From supported Ricoh multifunction products (MFPs) with USB/SD slots, users insert their USB/SD card, and follow the instructions on the operation panel to scan their document to the memory device.  When the user removes their USB/SD card from the MFP, they can access their scanned files immediately with their PC, laptop, or other mobile device. Which file formats are supported? Scan to USB/SD supports PDF/A, single-page TIFF, JPEG, PDF, and high compression PDFs, as well as multi page TIFF, PDF and high compression PDF file formats. Can the scan be enlarged or reduced? Ricoh MFPs with a GWNX controller allow users to automatically reduce or enlarge the size of their scan to a different supported paper size. For example, an A4 size document can be scanned to A5 paper size. This is ideal to save both storage space, and paper, if the document will be p

User authentication - RICOH

User authentication is a process for authorised users to validate that they are who they say they are, by some pre-arranged criteria. Typically, user authentication is required to allow access to electronic devices, networks, or services. A common user authentication process is accessing bank accounts at an automatic teller machine (ATM). This requires us to enter a bank-issued security card, followed by a personal identification number (PIN) at the keypad. Because user authentication is a part of daily life, the requirement for user authentication to access office automation equipment at work is a standard expectation. User authentication methods Supported Ricoh multifunction products (MFPs) provide four methods to control user access: Windows authentication LDAP authentication Basic authentication User codes.   Windows authentication Users are required to log on to the device using their existing Windows network username and password. Only users with a valid username and password can
