Ricoh fi-8270 ADF + Manual feed scanner 600 x 600 DPI A4 Black, Grey

As the evolution of the market’s leading image scanners, the fi-8000 series redefines the standard for business scanning by solving today’s challenges and providing a long-term strategic advantage for organisations adapting to the future of work. Boasting breakthrough optical technology and a wide range of innovative new patents, the fi-8000 series supports digital transformation with industry-leading accuracy and user experience, built on technology you can trust.

Market defining performance

Clear Image Capture
Clear Image Capture is a breakthrough proprietary optical technology innovation debuting in the fi-8000 series. True image rendering and colour shift prevention deliver industry leading OCR accuracy rates and image quality that surpasses the capabilities of standard CIS or CCD alone. And, as a more efficient optical technology, power consumption for every scan is reduced. Clear Image Capture also enables capture of the widest range of document types from 20gsm-465gsm – including A4 envelopes, cards, passports, or booklets up to 7mm thick.

Tech you can trust

Automatic Separation Control
Our patented Automatic Separation Control delivers the perfect feed so organisations can scan larger volumes and mixed batches of documents with confidence. By sensing their weight and adapting and adjusting torque automatically, mis-feed and mid-scan interruptions are eliminated. This guarantees feed stability for different document formats and saves users from wasting time sorting different document types into individual batches. It also enables the 100 sheet ADF capacity and higher speeds for more efficient, high-throughput workgroup scanning.

Industry leading paper protection
The fi-8000 series protects documents from damage using innovative new technology. Patented Image Monitoring identifies overly skewed documents in real time and halts the scanning process before they can be damaged. ISoP (excluding fi-8150, fi-8250 models) will do the same if it detects any abnormal feed sounds. While Lag Detection ensures documents are feeding through at the expected speed.

Specialist passport capture capability
The patented feeding mechanism ensures safe capture of passports without a carrier sheet, while MRZ recognition ensures consistently accurate capture of personal data.

Real-world productivity without equal

Enhanced multi-feed detection
Unnecessary stoppages in the scanning process are eliminated by automatically recognising and ignoring cards, stickers, and small defined attachments. This patented technology is an evolution beyond standard multi-feed detection which stops when anything beyond a single sheet is identified during feed through.

High speed, high throughput
Fast boot time and up to 90ppm duplex mean the fi-8000 series delivers a highly efficient scanning process for the ultimate in workgroup productivity. Incorporating USB 3.2 and gigabit LAN connectivity also makes rapid file transfer possible.

Overscan Control
Automatically adjust scanning area to prevent image loss on skewed documents, removing the need to ever have to rescan slightly skewed documents. Three precisely positioned sensors detect document edges and adjust the scanning area accordingly to fit the document, even if it has been inserted at a skewed angle. Users can scan safe in the knowledge that the entire document will be scanned every time and no part of the image will ever be lost.

Urethane rollers
Urethane rollers are resistant to absorption of oil from NCR paper, unlike EPDM rollers which can swell and affect feed torque. Maintaining their integrity avoids misfeed and jams for consistent feed performance.

Stacker support
Ergonomically designed stacker support neatly stacks scanned documents for faster, easier post-scan filing.

How to use

Place documents in the ADF tray or feed single items manually through the front feeder. For best results with mixed batches, allow the scanner’s Automatic Separation Control to detect and adjust feed torque automatically. Select duplex scanning and the desired resolution in the driver (PaperStream IP recommended) before starting. Use Passport mode for MRZ capture when scanning passports. Files can be routed to connected PCs or network folders via USB 3.2 or Gigabit LAN and processed further with PaperStream Capture or PaperStream NX Manager.

Recommendations

Use PaperStream IP and PaperStream Capture to optimise image cleaning and automate capture workflows. Keep urethane rollers clean and free of debris; for long runs, monitor ADF stack height and avoid mixing heavily damaged documents to maintain feed reliability.
