At Standley Systems, we take pride in partnering with vendors that keep our customers at the forefront of modern technology and security capabilities. Now, with RICOH Always Current Technology, our team can easily manage, update, and secure your business’s cloud-enabled office equipment, providing your staff seamless document management capabilities.

What is Ricoh Always Current Technology?

RICOH Always Current Technology is a new feature enabling remote, automatic updates to all your RICOH, Lanier, and Savin Intelligent Devices. Instead of budgeting for your office equipment to only last a few years before becoming obsolete, you can invest with confidence in multifunction printers (MFPs) that will advance and improve over time.

RICOH MFPs with Always Current Technology can automatically download updates and initiate installation. As a result, your smart office equipment always has the latest functions and security features. 

WIth RICOH Always Current Technology, your business gets the benefit of using quality office equipment from the RICOH product family with simple, automated updates that extend the value of your technology investment.

Benefits of RICOH Always Current Technology

In addition to supporting convenient smart updates, RICOH Always Current Technology, brings a variety of usability, copy, fax, document management, and security functions, including:

  • Multi-language support
  • New color features
  • Advanced print layout support (e.g., booklet, magazine settings)
  • Communication records
  • Settings to prevent receiving unwanted faxes
  • Administrator control over encryption and network connections
  • Remote login, password, and account management for enhanced data security
  • End-to-end print job data encryption

And RICOH Always Current Technology allows integration with other intelligent business solutions, like Dynamic Workplace Intelligence. Altogether, these solutions allow your business to increase productivity, streamline work, and secure your documents across your connected office equipment and devices.

How to update your RICOH devices

To download and install the latest version of RICOH Always Current Technology:

  • Access the RICOH Application site.
  • Select the Always Current Technology Update button.
  • Click the install button that appears. 
  • Once your installation is complete, the device restarts with the latest video of Always Current Technology running on it.

Printers that support Always Current Technology

Many RICOH devices your business relies on may support the Always Current Technology update (IM C2000, IM C2500, IM C3000, IM C3500, IM C4500, IM C6000, IM 550F, IM 600SRF, IM C530FB, IM C6500, IM C8000, IM C300F, IM C400F, IM C400SRF, IM 7000, IM 8000, and IM 9000).
