High speed scanning

Realizes a scanning speed of 90 ppm/180 ipm [fi-8190/fi-8290] (*1) (*2), 70 ppm/140 ipm [fi-8170/fi-8270] (*1), or 50 ppm/100 ipm [fi-8150/fi-8250/fi-8150U/fi-8250U] (*1). Furthermore, up to 100 sheets of documents (*3) can be loaded for continuous scanning which enables you to quickly digitize a large volume of documents.

Network connection [fi-8190/fi-8290/fi-8170/fi-8270/fi-8150/fi-8250]

The scanner can be connected via a wired LAN.

Even with a network connection, the scanning speed is equivalent to that of a USB connection.

During a network communication, in order to prevent information leaks due to interception of communications, you can encrypt scanned images.

For details, refer to the Network Setup Tool for fi Series Help or Network Settings (fi Series Network Settings) [fi-8190/fi-8290/fi-8170/fi-8270/fi-8150/fi-8250].

Equipped with a Liquid Crystal Display [fi-8190/fi-8290/fi-8170/fi-8270]

The scanner mounts an LCD that displays various operational settings for scanning, number of pages scanned, and error status.

This allows you to easily configure various operational settings for a scan or check the number of pages scanned or the error status.

Equipped with a Function Number Display [fi-8150/fi-8250/fi-8150U/fi-8250U]

The scanner mounts the Function Number Display that displays the error status.

This allows you to easily check the error status.

Capable of scanning documents folded in half, envelopes, multi-layered transfer paper, and booklets such as passports

This scanner mounts the [Manual Feed] button that is used to switch the mode to Manual Feed Mode.

Switching the mode to Manual Feed Mode reduces the load on documents being fed so that documents are fed and scanned successfully.

Improved efficiency for pre-scan work

The scanner can perform "mixed batch scanning" which allows you to scan documents with different paper weights and sizes, such as A4 size wood-free paper and plastic cards, at once.

This simplifies the process of sorting the documents before scanning.

Reduced work loss caused by multifeeds

The scanner has ultrasonic multifeed sensors that accurately detect "multifeed" errors where two or more sheets are fed through the scanner at once.

This detection for overlapped documents is reliable even when scanning a mixed batch of documents with different paper weights and sizes, such as A4 size wood-free paper and plastic cards, avoiding potential work loss.

Intelligent multifeed detection function

When there is paper of the same size attached to a designated location on the page, the intelligent multifeed detection function enables the scanner to recognize the area of the attachment.

The scanner does not detect the recognized area where the attachment is on as overlapping of documents so that scanning can continue.

Paper protection function by detecting paper jam noise [fi-8190/fi-8290/fi-8170/fi-8270]

The scanner is equipped with a function that detects a paper jam by noise made while a document is being fed and stops the scan.

This function reduces the risk of having valuable documents damaged.

Paper protection function by monitoring documents that are fed skewed

The scanner is equipped with a function that detects a paper jam by the amount of skew that has occurred on a document while it is being fed and stops the scan.

This function reduces the risk of having valuable documents damaged.

Advanced image processing function

The scanner is equipped with a function that automatically detects whether a document is in color or monochrome and then outputs an image of the document.

This function reduces the risk of color deviation or stripes from occurring on documents and allows you to output highly reproducible images.

Preventing images form missing any parts even if documents are fed skewed [fi-8190/fi-8290/fi-8170/fi-8270]

The scanner is equipped with a function that detects the top and bottom of a document when a document is fed skewed and then outputs an image of the document.

This function prevents images from missing any parts even if documents are fed skewed.

An imprinter can be installed [fi-8190/fi-8170/fi-8150/fi-8150U]

The imprinter is available as an optional imprinter that can print characters on a document after a scan.

Using an imprinter improves work efficiency in document management or in the verification of documents.

Capable of scanning a document in a black background on the flatbed [fi-8290/fi-8270/fi-8250/fi-8250U]

A black document pad for the flatbed is available as an option.

Using a black document pad when scanning a document that has a white background allows you to output the scanned image in the actual size of the document.

Capable of scanning photographs, clippings, and documents that are too big to be loaded in the scanner

The Carrier Sheet and Photo Carrier Sheet are available as an option.

Using them allows you to scan photographs that can be damaged quite easily, clippings, or non-standard size documents that cannot be loaded in the scanner.

Capable of scanning a booklet such as a passport without damaging it

The Booklet Carrier Sheet is available as an option.

Even if the scanner is not equipped with the flatbed, using it allows you to open and scan a booklet such as a passport that can be damaged quite easily.

Centralized operation of multiple scanners [fi-8190/fi-8290/fi-8170/fi-8270/fi-8150/fi-8250]

With PaperStream NX Manager, multiple scanners can be operated together.

For example, you can specify the scanner that you want to use and specify scanning menus that are customized for each scanner, and distribute them to the scanners.

You can also save images in a specified linked destination, and monitor the processing status of images.

For details, refer to the PaperStream NX Manager User's Guide.

The PaperStream NX Manager User's Guide can be downloaded from the following web page:

https://www.pfu.ricoh.com/global/scanners/fi/support/manuals/

Centralized management of multiple scanners

With Scanner Central Admin Server, multiple scanners can be managed together.

For example, the application can be used to update the setting information and scanner drivers for all scanners at once, and can be used to check the operating status of each scanner.

If the scanner is operated with a computer, you can use Scanner Central Admin Agent to link with Scanner Central Admin Server.

If the scanner is operated with PaperStream NX Manager, you can link with Scanner Central Admin Server directly.

For details, refer to the Scanner Central Admin User's Guide.
