EXTON, PA, October 16, 2024 – Ricoh USA, Inc. today announced a new color A4 multifunction printer (MFP) and printer series specifically designed to meet the demands of today’s hybrid workplaces. Ideal for space-constrained locations, the series provides innovative features and solutions for workplace optimization, information sharing and sustainability that are typically reserved for larger A3 devices, but in a smaller footprint.
