Ricoh Aficio MP 201SPF review
Efficiently sharing documents and other information is critical in any size
organization. Finding smart, new ways to manage print, copy, scan and fax
output can significantly reduce costs and improve the speed and agility of
your business. The RICOH Aficio MP 201F/MP 201SPF Digital Imaging System
offers a variety of standard and optional management tools that give you
greater control over document-related processes. Security features—such
as hard drive overwriting, encryption and user authentication—provide
multiple levels of protection for important documents and data. While it
features a compact design, the Aficio MP 201F/MP 201SPF also packs the
multifunctional power and fast 21 pages-per-minute output you need to
minimize cost and maximize productivity.
Up to 21 pages-per-minute output speed. (Letter)

standard 10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet and USB 2.0 interfaces, as well as
optional Gigabit Ethernet, IEEE 802.11a/b/g and IEEE 1284 interfaces.
Minimize wait time and relieve network congestion with PDF Direct Print,
which enables you to print PDFs without opening each file in Adobe®
Acrobat®.
Distribute full-color documents via Scan-to-Email or to network folders via
Scan-to-Folder.
Make any hard copy document portable in seconds with the Scan-to-Media
option, which loads scanned files directly to a USB drive or SD card.
Retrieve fax numbers and e-mail addresses directly from your corporate
address book, with LDAP support.
Protect sensitive or confidential scanned documents with security features,
including encrypted PDF transmission.
Super G3 fax modem transmits each page in just two seconds.
Forward incoming faxes to an e-mail address, so users can receive important
documents anywhere — even if they are away from the office.
Reduce document distribution costs dramatically with advanced IP (T.38)
faxing, which delivers fax documents almost instantaneously over IP
networks, or with Internet (T.37) faxing.
Deliver fax documents to any destination without leaving your desk with LAN
faxing, which saves time and money.
Ensure security with multi-level Authentication which lets you confirm user
identity and control access to scanning and other functions.
Prevent confidential documents from unauthorized viewing with Locked Print.
It requires a password before it releases any file for output and deletes
the file automatically from the MFP’s optional hard drive.
Reduce the risk of wiretapping with encrypted PDF transmission. This
feature encrypts PDF data prior to transmission via Scan-to-Email and
Scan-to-Folder.
Protect critical documents with the DataOverwriteSecurity System (DOSS)
feature, which overwrites the hard drive after every job. Or use the HDD
Encryption option to safeguard valuable data, even if the hard drive is
stolen. (Included with Hard Drive option)
The fax only model uses Random Access Memory (RAM) instead of a hard drive
for document processing. Document images are not stored on the hard drive
only volatile RAM.
The fax modem can only communicate via G3 fax communication protocol. The
G3 fax modem cannot be used as a communication route for computer network
communication.
Allocate print jobs to specific clients, workgroups or projects for
chargeback using the Classification Code feature.
