Ricoh Document Scanners
Ricoh document scanners offer a versatile range of devices for modern businesses.
With a diverse range of options, there’s a Ricoh scanner to suit every workflow. Designed for reliable performance, Ricoh document scanners help individuals and teams digitise paperwork efficiently, streamline document processes, and keep files easy to manage.
From compact desktop models to higher-volume scanners for busy departments, the range covers day-to-day admin and demanding batch scanning. Many Ricoh document scanners support duplex scanning and smart image processing to deliver clear, consistent files with fewer rescans and less manual clean-up, helping to improve productivity and workflow instantly.
Ricoh document scanners can also support structured document management, including OCR/searchable PDF workflows and organised output to common destinations (model dependent).
This helps teams retrieve information quickly and handle documents confidently in environments where accuracy and control matter.
Choose the right model by matching speed, duty cycle, and workflow needs to your organisation. If you scan occasionally, a smaller unit may be ideal. If you scan every day, a higher-capacity model will keep throughput steady.
Whatever your workflow, BDM ArcScan can help you find the right Ricoh Document Scanner, backed by 12 months of FREE technical support through our TechAssist service.

Ricoh Document Scanners FAQs
What are Ricoh document scanners best for?
Ricoh document scanners are ideal for fast, reliable scanning of everyday business paperwork. They suit workflows such as invoices, forms, contracts, and multi-page records where consistent capture and easy filing matter.
Do Ricoh document scanners support duplex scanning?
Many Ricoh document scanners support duplex scanning, capturing both sides of a page in one pass (model dependent). Duplex is a big time saver for double-sided documents and high-volume batches.
Can Ricoh document scanners create searchable PDFs?
Yes. With OCR workflows (model/software dependent), Ricoh document scanners can create searchable PDFs, making it easier to retrieve documents later by keyword.
What do PPM and IPM mean on scanner specifications?
PPM means pages per minute and refers to how many sheets a scanner can process in a minute (often quoted for single-sided scanning). IPM means images per minute and counts each scanned side as an image. With duplex scanning, one sheet produces two images, so IPM often gives a clearer view of real duplex throughput.
Can Ricoh document scanners scan to shared folders and email?
Many models support scan-to common destinations such as folders and email (model dependent). This helps teams route documents quickly and standardise filing.
What is PaperStream Capture, and do I need it?
PaperStream Capture is a capture software bundled with many Ricoh scanners. It helps automate scanning tasks, organise output, and support workflows like indexing and data extraction (model/software dependent). It’s especially useful for teams scanning batches every day.
Can Ricoh document scanners extract data from forms?
Yes. With OCR and capture workflows (model/software dependent), Ricoh document scanners can extract key data from forms to reduce manual entry. For more advanced form features, PaperStream Capture Pro and PaperStream Capture Pro Premium add stronger automation, form recognition, and high-accuracy OCR for printed text, non-cursive handwriting, and tick-boxes.
Do Ricoh document scanners automatically enhance scans (deskew, crop, etc.)?
Many Ricoh document scanners include automatic image processing to produce cleaner files with less manual editing (model/software dependent). Features can include auto-cropping, deskewing/straightening, blank page removal, and image cleanup, helping you achieve consistent “ready-to-file” results and improving OCR accuracy for searchable PDFs.
What software helps automate batch scanning and improve accuracy?
PaperStream Capture supports profile-driven scanning and tools like quality checks, assisted rescan, and automated separation/sorting using OCR, barcodes, or patch codes (model/software dependent). This is ideal for teams scanning daily batches and wanting faster, more consistent processing.
How do I choose the right Ricoh document scanner?
Start with your daily volume and document types. Then compare speed (ppm/ipm), duplex, ADF capacity, and duty cycle. If you share scanners across a team, also consider connectivity and scan destinations.
