High-performance
Black-and-white and Colour in One
When you invest in office equipment,
you want the best without overstepping your
budget. With the Aficio™2232C/2238C, Ricoh
introduces two leading edge multi-functional
products. Easy operation, versatile finishing,
device management, advanced faxing and
scanning… it’s all yours. And to meet your
latest needs, we added optimal network
connectivity, colour scanning and efficient
document management.
Versatile Finishing & Booklet Creation
Make a professional impression with your finished productions.
You can choose between a 2,000-sheet multi-tray finisher or
a 1,000-sheet booklet finisher for the creation of striking
newsletters, manuals, presentation materials etc.
Intuitive Operation
Printing, copying, faxing and scanning: you are easily guided through all processes thanks to the large, self-explanatory LCD touch screen. In addition, the ‘scan once, copy many’ principle stands for optimal reliability while the electronic sorting function allows easy handling and efficient distribution.
Web-based Device Management
Using Web SmartDeviceMonitor™, the status of networked peripherals can be monitored and checked through common web browsers. Additionally, IT managers and network administrators can set user privileges, obtain complete job statistics and restrict usage.

and slight differences in detail might appear.
Connect to Any Network
With its embedded Network Interface Board (NIB), the
Aficio™2232C/2238C can integrate with virtually any
network environment. An IEEE 1394 interface board or
USB2.0 option can be added to enhance connectivity
flexibility.
network without
Wireless LAN enables printing across the
the use of cables. Opting for Bluetooth
allows you to connect devices outside the network.
Time-saving One-click Printing
Ricoh’s unique printer language RPCS™ enables fast, easy and efficient printing. Thanks to its icon-based interface, any print job - no matter how complex - is only one click away and entering print commands takes only seconds.
Secure & Confidential Printing
To prevent unauthorised people from picking
up your confidential print jobs, you can use the Locked Print™ facility: only after password
confirmation will the documents be released.
The Sample Print™ function eliminates errors
when producing multiple sets: you can verify
the first set before collecting the remaining sets.
Easy Faxing from your PC
Via the LAN fax function, you can send fax messages directly from your own networked PC. This saves time and ensures better output quality at the receiving end. To reduce the distribution of printed faxes, inbound faxes can be automatically forwarded by e-mail. You can even receive faxes outside the office, via your laptop.
Unlimited Auto Duplex
To reduce paper usage, the Aficio™2232C/2238C are equipped with a tray-less auto duplex function. It produces unlimited double-sided output in a single job without loss of speed.
Cost-saving Internet Faxing
Using the Internet for long distance faxing has major advantages. By sending fax messages to PCs in e-mail format, you reduce costs while enhancing your communication capabilities.
If you need to distribute documents in a secure way, you can send scanned
colour files as e-mail attachments straight from the operation panel. No delivery
server is required. Up to 2,000 e-mail addresses can be stored in the systems’
Hard Disk Drive or you can use LDAP to directly access up to date e-mail addresses from your company’s e-mail system. This all adds up to a very

At 32/38 pages per minute and 24/28 in colour, your output – whether simplex or duplex – is ready before you know it. A short warm-up time and high first output speed make these systems ideal for user groups with high productivity requirements.
Easy to Use for Anyone

Efficient Storage, Merging & Distribution
To digitise, store and manage all files, the Aficio™2232C/2238C come with ScanRouter™ V2 Lite & DeskTopBinder™ V2 Lite software. The possibilities are endless: ‘scan to folder’, search and view files, re­distribute files, combine digital and analogue documents into one, etc.
Colour Sells
Most of your business documents will be acceptable if printed in black-and-white. However, add a touch of colour to your pro­posals, invoices, forms etc. and you will be surprised at the impact. Documents become easier to read, understand and recognise when colour is used. This not only enhances their impact1, but also guarantees higher retention and even increases brand awareness – vital elements to stay ahead in today’s competitive business world.
