Long time print innovator breaks new ground in amplifying customers\u2019 messages, made possible with the RICOH Pro C9100<\/em><\/p>\n

MALVERN, PA, March 22, 2016 \u2013 Ricoh Americas Corporation today announced that Graphic Partners, an Illinois-based commercial and digital print provider, has chosen the RICOH Pro C9100 digital print platform to provide a new style of application to its customers, creating a market niche for themselves and helping customers\u2019 applications stand out. Upon recognizing the variable data printing (VDP) and long-sheet capabilities this platform delivers, Graphic Partners moved quickly to leverage it for short and long VDP runs \u2013 addressing demands from their marketing savvy customer base.<\/p>\n

\u201cRicoh gave us the technology we needed to serve our clients better, rather than just trying to sell us a box,\u201d said Kirk Larsen, Partner, Graphic Partners. \u201cTheir team understands the importance of innovation, especially in the commercial print space. Many times, customers don\u2019t know what options they have until they\u2019re presented to them. Working with Ricoh to add long-sheet technology has given our sales people something new and exciting to talk about with our customers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Graphic Partners has been in business for more than 100 years and has been blazing trails in digital printing since 1988. Priding themselves on providing print solutions personalized for customers\u2019 needs and the strong customer relationships they forge, the company is always looking for new and innovative ways to serve customers. To that end, Graphic Partners keeps tabs on the latest technologies and their capabilities, ready for opportunities to create something never-before-seen. Since installing the RICOH Pro C9100, the company has leveraged the device\u2019s ability to print six pages duplex to develop creative new kinds of collateral that are proving a hot commodity for customers. Additionally, Graphic Partners has seen increases in efficiency and information flow, helping them to complete more work more quickly and seamlessly adapt to various customer requirements.<\/p>\n

With speeds of up to 110 pages per minute (ppm) and the ability to print on media up to 400 gsm, the RICOH Pro C9100 delivers high-quality output, increased productivity and reliability at prices much lower than what is generally available. In a market previously limited to more expensive offerings, the RICOH Pro C9100 enables companies like Graphic Partners to pursue new applications and decrease turnaround times.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur relationship with Graphic Partners is the perfect combination of innovative technologies and creative ideas,\u201d said John Fulena, Vice President, Production Printing Business Group, Ricoh Americas Corporation. \u201cAt Ricoh, we place a premium on innovation. It\u2019s what drove us to release the RICOH Pro C9100 series in the first place. So seeing Graphic Partners build on that innovation and find new and exciting ways to serve their customers is truly inspiring to us.\u201d<\/p>\n
