The Expansion of Ricoh's Inkjet Technology
Pushing the Boudaries of Inkjet to Open New Worlds
Ricoh has been developing its proprietary inkjet technology since 1973.
It started out as technology to be used in office printing. Now it is used in numerous commercial areas.
It has even developed into industrial solutions, deployed in a variety of applications encompassing food,clothing and housing.
Ricoh keeps expanding the printing possibilities, delivering new value and new experiences for our customers across the globe.
Office/ business printing
Ricoh's inkjet technology development team started out focusing on the creation of a business inkjet printer - one that is fast, supports plain paper printing, and operates at low cost per page. The development yielded a bi-pitch laminated piezo actuator. This technology is the foundation of the heads used in Ricoh's inkjet product portfolio.
Commercial printing
With high quality printing on a wide range of media at high speed, Ricoh helps you expand your business.
Industrial printing
Ricoh‘s inkjet printheads range from high-resolution to large droplet. The RICOH MH SERIES offers a wide range of ink compatibility with high durability. The RICOH TH SERIES provides a compact footprint. The inkjet printhead and ink technologies developed over several years are now deployed as solutions. Ricoh enables printing on many different media for a broad range of solutions.
