Ricoh named a worldwide leader in high speed inkjet in new IDC MarketScape report
Analysts cite: “Ricoh shows strength in all the key factors identified by the IDC MarketScape to ensure success in the high speed inkjet market.”
Ricoh’s commitment to its clients’ success helped earn its global leader position. Analysts cited Ricoh’s continual technological advancements and heavy investments in ensuring client feedback is a part of its R&D process as a major positive. Most recently, this approach has driven game-changing successes such as the award winning Ricoh Pro VC70000, which introduced Ricoh patented drying technology and Extended Gamut Inks. These innovations work together to increase ink limits for higher image quality, drive down turnaround times to help meet SLAs and increase throughput, and empower printing on uncoated, offset coated, inkjet treated and inkjet coated stocks without pre-treatment or priming, offering greater creative flexibility and lower paper costs. Continuing to invest more than $1 billion dollars annually in R&D, these innovations in response to real world pain points and client goals are the norm at Ricoh.
“Expanding beyond its transactional and direct mail roots, Ricoh’s introduction of the Ricoh Pro VC70000 dovetails perfectly with its expanding software and services to empower the company to more actively target the commercial print and graphics space,” said Amy Machado, Research Manager for IDC's Imaging, Printing, and Document Solutions, IDC. “Beyond its own growth in more diverse segments, Ricoh is looking to help its customers expand their offerings, as well.”
