This new product line aims to significantly enhance efficiency and quality for businesses in the light-production printing segment.
Key Features and Advancements
The RICOH Pro C5400S Series comes packed with advanced features designed to empower enterprises, marketing agencies, and commercial printers to produce top-notch professional materials in-house without hindrance. A standout feature includes an industry-first staple-less binding option.

Enhanced Performance and Usability
Building upon the capabilities of its predecessors, the Pro C5300S and Pro C5310S, the new C5400S Series features accelerated warm-up times, drastically reduced from 120 seconds to just 26 seconds for the Pro C5410S, and 30 seconds for the Pro C5400S. This improvement means businesses can respond to demands more rapidly. Additionally, the series includes enhanced scanning speeds and a new capacitive touch interface for its 10.1" Smart Operation Panel, enriching the user experience through better responsiveness and ease of use.
Versatile Printing Options
The C5400S Series supports a broad spectrum of media types, from coated and specialty papers to synthetic stocks, accommodating weight variations up to 360 gsm. Print speeds can reach up to 80 pages per minute, making it suitable for many promotional material applications. In-plant and franchise printing operations stand to benefit as they can now handle a wider array of tasks and enhance their service offerings.
For commercial printers, the C5400S Series introduces superior functionalities that ensure stable, high-quality output. Notably, an upgraded Vacuum Feed Large Capacity Input Tray improves paper handling and registration accuracy, facilitating better duplex and long-sheet printing outcomes. The advanced user interface aids operators in adjusting paper settings swiftly, guaranteeing optimal performance based on their unique print requirements.
Eco-Friendly Innovations
In an effort towards sustainability, this new printer series significantly increases the use of post-consumer recycled materials. This commitment to environmental stewardship is not only beneficial for the planet but also helps customers align their operations with sustainability goals.
