Unrivalled
1,200 x 1,200 dpi Quality

Designed with Ricoh’s 2x 4-beam laser tech­nology, the Aficio™2090 is the world’s first
system producing high quality output with

Conventional Workflow

Whether paper based or PC based, your output
system is the core of your production. A system
that offers high performance print, copy and
scan functionalities and cuts time as well as
costs, is crucial. However, for an efficient work­flow,

process of professional document production.
From easy programming and time-efficient
job preparation to customised finishing; with
its complete range of extras, the Aficio™2090
is ideally equipped to streamline your workflow.
From beginning to end, it bridges the gap
between analogue and digital.

SmartDeviceMonitor™ and Web Image Monitor, network administra­tors

can easily monitor and check the device status from their

desktop and restrict usage if necessary.

digitise your paper originals, using the bundled
ScanRouter™ V2 Lite software or Twain driver.

(4) Efficient Job Storage

Being able to store print/copy jobs is a must. When scanning

the job, you can save it on the Aficio™2090’s document server

and retrieve it via the network at any time for on demand
printing. With the optional file format converter, stored files

(6) Non Stop Paper Capacity

Long print/copy runs are no problem thanks to the Aficio™2090’s maximum input
capacity of 8,050 sheets. Paper is available from up to 7 different trays, including
the convenient bypass tray for special paper types, such as A3+ and up to 216 g/m
paper. The system automatically switches to the next tray with the same paper when
the current one runs out of paper. In addition, you can refill all trays during printing/
copying. The same applies to the double toner capacity.

(7) 1:1 Duplex Productivity

Especially in high-volume environments, duplexing
is common. Speed is therefore essential. The
Aficio™2090 allows you to produce double sided
output at the same high speed (90 ppm) as single
sided prints so productivity is never compromised.

(8) Customised Finishing

To meet today’s professional business demands, the
Aficio™2090 can be equipped with one of 2 types of
finishers as well as a professional booklet maker.
