Ricoh Aficio MP1350
At 135-ppm, Ricoh’s new Aficio MP1350 adds a further 30-
ppm to Ricoh’s high volume production top speed. Ricoh
users will recognize the MP1350 as being similar in build
and stature as the Aficio 2105, which was the third
generation Ricoh production MFP.
While the 1st and 2nd generation light production products
showed jumps in functionality, feature set and production
capabilities since the introduction of the Aficio 850 many
years ago, the MP1350 in BERTL’s opinion is the biggest
single generation advance in Ricoh’s light production
history.
The list of new features, options, and new third party
partners that have been added to the MP1350, and its
sister products, the MP1100 (110-ppm) and MP9000 (90-
ppm) is impressive.
The product is still, in BERTL’s opinion sitting in a variety of
potential market places. On the one hand, its relatively low
price point, small footprint/ppm ratio, and wide
multifunctional feature set means that it can still be
considered as a front office workhorse.
However, with a choice of powerful EFI Fiery or MicroPress
print workflow and processing options, GBC StreamPunch
III, 13” x 18” media support, Plockmatic production class
engine speed booklet-making facilities including square-
edge bind, up to 6,500 sheet 13” x 18” online paper
capacity and twin cover inserters all place the MP1350 in
the high volume production bracket.
BERTL analysts during their first evaluation of the MP1350
were provided with this device equipped with Ricoh’s own
embedded print controller. This controller is clearly
designed to accommodate the front office user and
workflow demands rather than those in a light production,
CRD or quick printer environment.
For that reason, BERTL’s first evaluation of the Ricoh
MP1350 will be written from the analytical perspective of
the front office environment where a wide feature set needs
to be user friendly and priced based on delivering a wide
range of documents for the general office environment.
BERTL will be revisiting the MP1350 shortly, carrying out a
second evaluation of the device from a CRD/quick printer
light production perspective, with the device this time
equipped with the EFI Fiery and/or MicroPress processing
and workflow capabilities.
During the next evaluation, BERTL’s analysts will be
scrutinizing the device within a productivity and image
quality standpoint from the back office buyer’s perspective.
Over the course of its initial testing, BERTL analysts put the
Ricoh Aficio MP1350 through its paces with a wide range of
vertical sector workflow scenarios from both desktop and
walk up applications ranging from simple text only Word
files to high resolution PDF files and complex architectural
CAD planning projects. Scanning came under great
scrutiny with productivity, functionality, and data capture
accuracy from a real world OCR perspective. All have
come under review.
