The RICOH fi-8820 is a high-performance production scanner built for organisations that require reliable, continuous document capture at high volumes. Designed for demanding scanning environments, it combines advanced paper handling, outstanding image quality, and flexible connectivity to maximise productivity while keeping operating costs under control.

Equipped with a 500-sheet Automatic Document Feeder and scanning speeds of up to 120 pages or 240 images per minute, the fi-8820 is designed for continuous batch scanning. High-speed USB 3.2 and integrated Gigabit LAN connectivity ensure reliable data transfer, while the robust construction, 105° maintenance opening, integrated LED lighting, and daily cleaning mode simplify maintenance and minimise downtime.

The scanner supports a wide variety of document types through both a traditional U-turn paper path and a straight-through paper path capable of handling documents up to 1.25 mm thick. Automatic Profile Selection recognises different document types and applies the appropriate scan settings automatically, reducing manual preparation for mixed document batches.

RICOH's Clear Image Capture technology delivers exceptional image quality and industry-leading OCR accuracy, while PaperStream IP automatically enhances images, removes background noise, and optimises file sizes for efficient storage and document management. The Intelligent Multi-Feed Function (iMFF) distinguishes between genuine double feeds and acceptable attachments such as sticky notes or photographs, helping to reduce unnecessary interruptions during production scanning.

Designed around operator efficiency, the fi-8820 features an ergonomic control panel, improved paper ejection, and precise document stacking for easier handling after scanning. Optional front and rear imprinters are available to add tracking information directly onto scanned documents.

Supplied with PaperStream IP, PaperStream Capture, and PaperStream ClickScan, the fi-8820 integrates easily into existing document capture workflows and is fully compatible with PaperStream Capture Pro as well as other professional capture applications. Combining high-speed performance, reliable paper handling, exceptional image quality, and flexible workflow integration, the RICOH fi-8820 is an ideal solution for service bureaus, government organisations, financial institutions, healthcare providers, mailrooms, and enterprise document processing environments that require dependable high-volume scanning.
