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 printed in the future. 

Note: The reduce/enlarge scan size feature doesn’t support the high compression PDF file format.

 

Target customers

Anyone who needs to scan documents remotely, such as: 

  • Users who work offsite or out of branch offices, and carry their documentation on a USB device or SD card
  • Students and visitors to public libraries would be able to quickly scan information to their memory device for future reference.

Benefits for the customer

  • Mobility—bulky paper documents can be transferred onto a USB  device or SD card for easy handling
  • Productivity—complex document storage requirements can be reduced
  • Environmentally friendly—information can be scanned to avoid making copies of documents—saving paper and costs
  • Security—users can protect the information on their memory device with a password, ensuring that their scanned documents are secure

Print from USB/SD - RICOH MFP

Print from USB/SD is a Ricoh print function enabling users to print files directly from a USB memory device or an SD card, without needing to access a PC. How does it work? As long as the printer or multifunction product (MFP) has the USB/SD connection, users insert their USB/SD device, select the document they wish to print from the MFP’s operation panel, and print.   Checking print job settings On supported Ricoh devices with a GWNX controller, users can check that they have selected the correct file to print, and that the correct print settings have been applied at the operation panel. By adjusting any incorrect settings before releasing the document to print, the amount of wasted time, energy, and paper is reduced. Depending on the device specifications, these print settings can be checked at the operation panel: Print setting PDF JPEG TIFF Paper tray select Yes Yes Yes Duplex Yes Yes Yes Booklet Yes No No Sort/stack Yes Yes Yes Staple Yes Yes Yes Punch...
