The RICOH fi-8040 is designed for organisations looking for a scanner that combines market-leading image quality, versatile connectivity and an intuitive user experience. Delivering industry-leading OCR accuracy rates, the scanner has multiple options for connecting via a network, or to an individual PC using USB. And its 10.9cm colour touchscreen and DirectScan application, enable PC-less scanning directly to workflows or email addresses, saving both time and effort.

This scanner incorporates our unique Clear Image Capture, producing image quality that exceeds other available technologies. Teamed with our PaperStream IP software, the fi-8040 delivers industry-leading OCR accuracy rates for data capture that you can trust – whilst ensuring your scans are always optimised for faster, low-cost access and storage.

Seamless and versatile connectivity is at the heart of fi-8040. The USB port provides connectivity to an individual PC in the traditional way. But with the fi-8040's LAN capability, you can enjoy complete flexibility with multiple ways to connect to your workflow, even without a PC. PaperStream IP Net enables a single scanner to serve multiple PCs, and any networked PC to use any scanner on the network. Or, for server-based connectivity, PaperStream NX Manager offers easy integration into your own solutions, so you can send scans seamlessly to any system on your business. DirectScan technology provides PC-less scanning directly into workflows, sending images straight to destinations such as network folders, FTP locations or multiple pre-programmed email addresses. In addition, Scanner Central Admin provides remote management, saving you time and money when it comes to deploying and maintaining your scanner.

The fi-8040's built-in LCD colour touchscreen provides every user with a highly intuitive experience. The customisable, easy-to-use interface reduces operator time and effort with large, clearly labelled buttons for their most common pre-defined routines – or when scanning to programmed email addresses. The support wizard guides you quickly through tasks and maintenance with on-screen prompts, to maximise operational uptime. And you can batch scan with greater peace-of-mind thanks to the ultra-sonic sensor that immediately pauses and alerts whenever the fi-8040 detects a multi-feed.
