Fairfield, NJ – Keypoint Intelligence, the leading market research firm and independent evaluator of print and smart workplace technology and services, proudly announces that the Ricoh IM C320F has won a Buyers Lab (BLI) 2025 Pick Award. This accolade is based on how well the device performed during Keypoint Intelligence lab testing.
“The Ricoh IM C320F sets a new benchmark for user experience in a compact A4 device,” stated Tony Maceri, Senior Lab Technician at Keypoint Intelligence. “From the well-engineered print driver that simplifies job programming to an A3-like touchscreen that offers literally effortless workflow navigation, the device combines strong usability with strong functionality. Productivity is further enhanced by its performance during print speed testing, making the Ricoh IM C320F highly productive in high-demand multi-user office environments.”
The Ricoh IM C320F impressed Keypoint Intelligence technicians and analysts with its:
- Enterprise-Class Usability: The intuitive touchscreen, which can tilt, allows for seamless navigation and job execution.
- Efficiency and Speed: The device delivered rapid first-print times and excelled in mixed-job output, making it a productivity powerhouse.
- Vibrant Image Quality: Consistent and bold color reproduction, crisp lines, and clean text ensure professional-looking output, including marketing materials and business graphics.
- Digitization Capabilities: Above average OCR scan accuracy, small compressed color scan file size, and encrypted scanning result in efficient and secure data handling.
Rachel Dean, Technical Editor in Keypoint Intelligence’s Workplace Group, emphasized: “Throughout testing the Ricoh IM C320F provided high-quality output, which is further enhanced by fine-tuning color settings within the print driver for precise, next-level output requirements. The device exceeded many other in-class tested devices—and even some A3 models—with its higher than average OCR scan accuracy and small compressed color scan file sizes. These scan capabilities are becoming increasingly vital for today’s digitization needs, and encrypted scan formats ensure efficient and secure data handling. The Ricoh IM C320F is also packed with productivity-enhancing features, including standard NFC and flexible mobile support, making it a small yet powerful mainstay for today’s in-office and hybrid workers.”
