Ricoh FI-8700 Scanner With A3 Flatbed

Capture mixed, fragile, and exception documents at production speeds, with reliable feeding, intelligent processing, and network-ready flexibility.

The fi-8700 allows you to scan A4 landscape documents at 100 ppm (200/300 dpi). The scanner is suitable for continuous scanning because it allows you to load up to 300 sheets at a time which improves efficiency when scanning a large volume of documents. In addition, various types of documents, such as thin paper, plastic cards, books, magazines, envelopes, and long page documents can be scanned on this scanner.

Stacker Side Guides reduce the time and effort required for aligning and putting away documents after a scan by preventing scanned documents from being unevenly stacked or aligned.

The Cover-open Cropping function automatically recognises the document’s size, even when the cover is opened, and eliminates the hassle of opening and closing the cover when consecutively scanning documents.

High Volume Scanning

With scanning speeds of 100 ppm/200 ipm (200/300 dpi), the fi-8700 greatly improves process efficiency. Large volumes of information can be captured from various media types, including thin paper, plastic cards, envelopes and long page documents.

Reliably and efficiently produce and make accessible high volumes of information from the paper document content in your back office and line of business departments.

Versatile Paper Feeding

The fi-8700 automatically adjusts to paper weights from 20-413 g/m². The straight paper path reduces the load on a document and assures reliable scanning regardless of the condition and type of a document. By simply sliding a lever to non-separation mode, you can easily scan thick and long documents folded in half, multi-layered document sets and envelopes.

Ergonomic ADF

The fi-8700 ADF unit slides to either side or rotates by 180 degrees so that the unit can be adjusted to the operator's needs. The Colour LCD on the operation panel reveals the scanner status at a glance and enables instant operation.

Lower Workload Before and After Scanning

The Automatic Document Feeder’s (ADF) independent side guides move to exactly the position required for each batch and the adjustable stacker side guides support neat alignment of processed documents. The fi-8700 flatbed consecutively scans thick, fragile or bound documents even with the document cover open.

With Timer Scan and Multi-Crop functions plus an A4 scan speed of 0.6 seconds, the flatbed enables difficult documents to be digitised quickly without becoming a throughput bottleneck. Stoppages and manual effort are minimised, operational continuity is maximised.

Innovative paper feeding Mechanisms

Skew Reducer automatically handles sheets of paper in a stack individually, so that if one sheet is fed-in skewed, subsequent sheets are not forced into physical skew. This ensures that all information in the documents is captured correctly, even in batches with mixed document formats.

The Paper Protection function monitors document movement and automatically stops feeding when any irregularities are detected.
