together with customers
The “Printing Innovation Center” is a place where customers can
experience “creation of a new work style,” “creation of information
value” and “creation of a business” provided by the Ricoh Group’s printing
solutions. Visitors can see, understand and try printing environments
and gain hands-on experience with a system that is similar to an actual
application suited to their type of business and job requirements. The
Centers are located in various cities in Japan, as well as London, New
York, and other cities.
Providing “Environmental” value in the production printing sector
Efforts to achieve sustainability, such as reducing environmental
impact, are also expected in the production printing sector,
including commercial printing and in-house printing. Based on
its successful achievements in reducing environmental impact
■ Pro C901/901S
Awarded the industry’s first and highest prize,
the Energy Conservation Grand Prize
“Pro C901/901S” (launched in October 2010) received the Energy
Conservation Center Chairman’s Prize in the Product and Business
Model category of the 2012 Energy Conservation Grand Prize
organized by the Energy Conservation Center, Japan (ECCJ). With
its energy saving design features such as a lower melting point for
the toner and improved fixing devices, the product achieved the
TEC (Typical Electricity Consumption) value set by the International
Energy Star program for the first time among printers providing
high-speed printing at 90 pages per minute.
■ Pro C901, C751/C651 series
Received the INGEDE certification for its easy-to-
recycle toner
The toner used in the Pro C series received the International
Association of the Deinking Industry (INGEDE) certification. The
level of “deinking” indicates the ease with which toner is removed
from paper in the recycling process. A higher level of deinking
promotes paper recycling. This certification recognizes that the
toner used for the Pro C series contributes to further promotion of
sustainable printing services.
in the office solutions sector, the Ricoh group develops top-class
environmentally conscious products and environmental technology,
and provides solutions such as “Carbon Balanced Production
Printing,” which helps customers reduce their environmental impact.
