Ricoh, a leading provider of smart workplace technology, has announced the launch of its new IM C7010 and IM C8010 Series A3 multifunction printers (MFPs), designed to serve as the heart of the modern workplace.
Built to handle demanding workloads, the IM C7010 and IM C8010 further expand Ricoh’s intelligent MFP range, empowering businesses to transform their in-house printing capabilities with smart and sustainable solutions. They deliver clear improvements in productivity, usability, and sustainability.
“We’ve seen a trend towards the high-volume segment in recent years,” says Sul Koralege, Product Manager, Ricoh Australia.
“More businesses are now looking for a centralised colour MFP that can consolidate several smaller desktop printers and larger black-and-white devices with a single powerhouse all-in-one device.
“That demand for high-volume, space-efficient solutions is exactly what the IM C7010 and IM C8010 were designed to meet.” Koralege said.
Building on the success of the award-winning IM C10 series launched in 2023, Ricoh has expanded the line with the new IM C7010.
Delivering speeds of up to 70ppm, the device retains the series’ intuitive design, advanced security, and cloud-based print management, while introducing a notable new feature.
Unlike the IM C6010, the IM C7010 can staple documents without the need for an external finisher—a first in this high-speed segment—allowing businesses to save valuable floorspace while still producing professional-quality documents.
While the IM C7010 is Ricoh’s first office-style 70ppm A3 colour MFP, the IM C8010 sits at the top of Ricoh’s office lineup, delivering 80ppm speed and introducing new advancements in document finishing and sustainable design.
The IM C8010 underscores Ricoh’s commitment to sustainable product design, setting a new benchmark for environmental performance.
The device incorporates 33% post-consumer recycled plastic and 32% recycled steel, along with other enhancements designed to help businesses advance their ESG goals.
“These new MFPs form an essential part of Ricoh’s evolving workplace technology portfolio and reinforce our commitment to delivering advanced solutions that help customers digitise and streamline their operations,” says Koralege.
“Both models introduce innovative new hardware and unique finishing capabilities, along with secure access to cloud services and digital workflows—enabling users to work more efficiently and seamlessly in a connected world”
These robust devices are ideal for enterprise environments, in-plant print rooms, and managed print services where productivity and reliability are critical.
Both MFPs provide print, copy, scan, and optional fax functions, and deliver outstanding colour prints, supporting resolutions of up to 2,400 x 4,800 dpi.

Future-Proofed with RICOH Always Current Technology: Device security is a top priority for Ricoh. RICOH’s Always Current Technology platform gives customers the latest security standards from the moment they receive it until the device is ready to be recycled.
