Ricoh has announced that a new IDC MarketScape analysis has named it a global leader in high-speed inkjet technology and products. The IDC MarketScape vendor analysis model is designed to provide an overview of the competitive fitness of ICT (Information and Communications Technology) suppliers in a given market. “Ricoh’s InfoPrint 5000 and Pro VC60000 production print platforms have served as the foundation for a massive global footprint bolstered significantly by Ricoh’s proven software and its services strategy,” said the OEM. The IDC MarketScape: Worldwide High-Speed Inkjet Press 2016 Vendor Assessment highlights this foundation, and support for a wide range of solutions and applications, as Ricoh’s most successful strengths.
“At Ricoh, we’re especially proud of the combined recognition of our customer-first approach and our technology innovations with our InfoPrint 5000 series and Ricoh Pro VC60000,” said John Fulena, Vice President of Marketing, Production Printing Business Group, Ricoh USA. “In any business-to-business industry, and especially in the production print space, it’s easy to allow your focus to narrow on speeds and feeds. At Ricoh, we see the holistic value our people, processes and technologies bring to our customers, and continue to evaluate what more they can be doing. It’s our aim to grow in the ways that are most useful for our customers – today, tomorrow and further into the future.”
