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 .

This is the scanner that combines an incredibly intuitive user experience with versatile network connectivity and unmatched image quality. It's the multi-faceted scanning solution your digital transformation demands.
