These two distinct models can be customized to meet your communication needs. The FAX3900 Series offers
increased productivity, cost savings and the future of faxing today!
FAX3900L
A productive and powerful standalone facsimile
with many features only found in larger, higher-end
fax equipment. Although compact, the FAX3900L
can be upgraded to provide Internet Faxing without
the need of a LAN connection.
FAX3900NF
Provides the same advance features as the FAX3900L,
but takes your communication capabilities to the next
level by offering higher paper capacity and network
connectivity including Internet and LAN faxing, right
out of the box.

most high performance
fax capabilities available,
you’re also capitalizing on
the future of advanced fax
communications right here
and now. Designed to cost-
effectively meet all of your

and imaging needs, these
sophisticated systems
enhance your workflow and
complement your workload
with state-of-the-art Ricoh
fax technology.
Advanced Fax Capabilities
The Ricoh FAX3900 Series provides cutting-edge fax features
to make your business more productive and profitable:
• Super G3 33.6 Kbps modem with JBIG Compression
ensures a fast, cost-cutting 3-pages-per-minute
transmission speed—twice as fast as conventional
fax modems!
• The 50-sheet Automatic Document Feeder and 2-second per page* scan speed
make scanning and storing multi-page outgoing faxes into memory easy.
• In addition to the standard 2 MB memory capacity (160 pages), you can also add
an optional 2 MB or 4 MB memory card to expand the document memory up to
a maximum of 480 pages for uninterrupted performance.
• The FAX3900L/3900NF systems’ fast 10-ppm printer engine ensures that high-volume
document processing runs smoothly and quickly, and that all of your outputs have
a crisp and professional look.
• Quick Memory Transmission begins once the first page is scanned into memory
and a connection is made. Additional pages are continually scanned during
the transmission process, making for super-fast faxing.
• Full Dual Access enhances productivity by allowing you to do multiple tasks
simultaneously such as scanning a document into memory while transmitting
or receiving another document.
• The standard paper supply, 250 sheets for the FAX3900L and 750 sheets for the
FAX3900NF, meets the most demanding environments and can be expanded to
a total capacity of 850 sheets of either letter or legal sizes. For those occasional
times when the paper may run out, documents are stored automatically
into memory and printed when paper is replenished, so you never miss an
incoming fax!
• ISDN Digital Fax Option provides 64 Kbps transmissions and a speed of 1.5 seconds
per page! Plus, you’ll gain a suite of reliable digital fax capabilities such as 99%
error-free communications, consistent
transmission speeds, image quality
and secure communications.

FAX3900L PSTN DIAL-UP (PDU) INTERNET FAX
By adding the PSTN Dial-Up (PDU) Option, users can have Internet
Fax capabilities. The PDU allows for direct dial-up through a normal
phone line to a designated Internet Service Provider (ISP). Then
e-mail messages are easily sent through the Internet.

FAX3900NF NETWORK INTERNET FAX
The FAX3900NF provides Internet Fax and network
connectivity right out of the box. There are no options to
install or software to provide. In addition to Internet Faxing,
the FAX3900NF provides powerful network features designed
to allow large workgroups to streamline communications,
improve document workflow and reduce costs.
Whether in a network or standalone environment, the Ricoh FAX3900 Series offers Internet Fax capabilities to meet
your needs. Fax documents that are traditionally sent over PSTN lines can now be easily sent over the Internet as
e-mail, eliminating all long distance or international costs. Document management is also improved by allowing
you to archive, forward, save or print the document, just like a normal e-mail. Only Ricoh lets you choose the
model that is right for your communication environment:
Ricoh’s third generation Internet Fax provides new enhanced features to further increase your efficiency:
• Delivery Confirmation – When an e-mail is sent with a confirmation request, a confirmation message is automatically
returned to the sender upon opening the document. This message can be listed on the journal or on the sender’s display.
2
• Programmable Subject – When sending a document via Ricoh’s Internet Fax, the subject of the document can be typed
in directly from the keyboard allowing the receiver to immediately identify the subject of the e-mail before opening it.
STANDARD FAX3900NF NETWORKING FEATURES
• LAN (Local Area Network) Faxing – Allows multi-user
workgroups on a network to increase productivity by easily
faxing documents from their desktop to any G3 fax. Ricoh’s
easy-to-use LAN Fax Driver allows any PC on the network
to LAN Fax, saving time and reducing costs.
• Inbound Fax Routing – All incoming faxes can be
conveniently routed directly to an individual’s PC.
• Network Scanning – The FAX3900NF functions as a network
scanner with scan–to–e-mail capabilities for easy document
distribution or archival.
• Automatic Document Back-Up – The FAX3900NF can be
programmed to automatically back-up all incoming and
outgoing faxes, Internet Faxes and LAN Faxes for easy
archival of all communications.
• NIC FAX Monitor Software – Allows you to program e-mail
addresses and fax numbers in quick, speed and group dials
directly from your PC.
• IC Viewer Software – Can display, edit and save Internet Fax
documents right from your PC.

Faxing
Made Simple
The FAX3900 Series has been
specifically designed so that
anyone can just step up and
start working. These user-friendly systems
boast many easy-to-operate features such as:
• The newly designed Control Panel, with dedicated keys for
advanced functions and its easy-to-read 2-line Back-Lit LCD
Display with upper and lower case letters, allows you to
quickly navigate and program your desired tasks and check
the status of all your transmissions.
• A handy Status Indicator provides operational status
from a distance. A green light flashes during transmission
and reception. A red light flashes when the toner,
paper supply, or communication error requires
immediate attention.
When Security and
Confidentiality Count
The FAX3900 Series provides you with advanced
security features that ensure your documents are
received confidentially:
• The Restricted Access feature requires that the user first
enters an authorization code to prevent unauthorized
people from using the FAX3900 Series.
• Memory Lock automatically stores incoming faxes into
memory so no one can read your confidential messages.
Just enter in your ID code and the documents are printed
for your eyes only.
• The Intuitive Keyboard is in a QWERTY format, meaning
it is configured like a PC keyboard allowing you to easily
input e-mail addresses, destination labels, fax headers and
names. Or if you prefer, the keyboard can be quickly
changed to the traditional ABCD format.
• The dedicated Help Key
prints out basic instructions
for the most frequently used
features providing quick,
on-the-spot convenience.
This feature eliminates a
time-consuming search
through the Operator’s Manual.
• Reverse Order Printing prints documents face down, so
they are received confidentially and are in numeric order
for quick and immediate distribution.
• An All-in-One Cartridge System provides long life
(Yield: 4,500 pages at 4%*), seamless operation
and easy maintenance. Plus, it eliminates the need
for buying, storing and replacing separate consumables.
