Scanner Ricoh Fi-800R A4 color duplex, 40 ppm / 80 ipm, ADF 30, USB 3.2, 600 dpi

The Ricoh Fi-800R is an A4 color duplex document scanner built for routine office digitization tasks. It scans both sides of a page in a single pass at up to 40 pages per minute (80 images per minute) using a 30-sheet automatic document feeder (ADF). With USB 3.2 connectivity and an optical resolution up to 600 dpi, the unit is aimed at mixed-paper scanning, batch processing and integration into document workflows where reliable daily throughput and accurate color capture are required.

Advantages

The scanner offers duplex single-pass capture that speeds up two-sided scanning jobs while maintaining consistent image quality at up to 600 dpi optical resolution. The 30-sheet ADF and USB 3.2 interface provide fast, cable-based connectivity suitable for PCs and workstations. The device is designed to handle a range of standard office paper types and sizes, reducing manual intervention during batch scans. Its straightforward setup and operation support efficient digitization in typical business environments.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Daily office document scanning and archiving of invoices, contracts and correspondence
• Batch scanning workflows that require duplex capture and moderate daily volume
• Digitization projects where color accuracy and up to 600 dpi resolution are useful for records
• Environments that rely on wired USB 3.2 connections to a desktop or laptop

When it may not be suitable

The Fi-800R is intended for moderate-volume office use; it may not be appropriate for very high-volume central reprographic departments or scanning centers that need higher ADF capacities and faster sustained speeds. It is also not designed for oversized originals beyond A4 or for specialized media such as bound books without separate book-scanning equipment.

Key specifications

• Scan speed: up to 40 pages per minute (80 images per minute) in duplex mode
• Automatic document feeder capacity: 30 sheets
• Maximum optical resolution: 600 dpi
• Color scanning: full-color scanning capability
• Interface: USB 3.2 for direct wired connection to a computer
• Supported document size: up to A4

How to use

Place a stack of documents (up to the 30-sheet ADF capacity) into the feeder, adjust the guides to match the paper width and connect the scanner to a PC via the USB 3.2 cable. Use the supplied or compatible scanning software to select duplex mode, color or grayscale settings, resolution up to 600 dpi and file output options (PDF, TIFF, JPEG or other supported formats). Start the scan job from the software or scanner controls, monitor the first batch for correct orientation and image quality, then process or store the digital files according to your workflow.

What to consider before purchase

• Expected daily volume — designed for moderate office throughput rather than heavy production scanning
• Document types and sizes — suitable for standard A4 mixed-paper documents; not for oversized or bound materials
• Connection requirements — requires a computer with a USB 3.2 port for optimal performance
• Space and placement — compact A4 footprint but requires clear access to the ADF and output tray

Usage recommendations

For consistent results, use clean, uncreased papers and remove staples or paper clips before scanning; run small test batches when changing media types or resolution settings, and schedule regular maintenance such as roller cleaning according to the manufacturer guidelines to maintain scan quality and prevent misfeeds.
