Ricoh’s continued innovation in high-speed inkjet has earned its newest press, the Ricoh Pro VC80000 with TotalFlow Print Server R600A, the prestigious Digital Press – Inkjet System Certification from Idealliance, a division of PRINTING United Alliance.
This certification is the result of rigorous independent testing that evaluates a digital press system’s ability to produce high-quality, consistent output across various print conditions. The Ricoh Pro VC80000’s success in achieving this benchmark demonstrates its advanced capabilities and reliability as a production-class inkjet system, reinforcing Ricoh’s leadership in the high-speed inkjet category.
A Certified Digital Press Engineered for Quality & Consistency
The PRINTING United Alliance Digital Press System Certification evaluates both the press hardware and digital front end (DFE), ensuring a fully integrated solution. The Ricoh Pro VC80000, paired with the TotalFlow Print Server R600A, passed comprehensive tests assessing:
- Colorimetric accuracy
- Uniformity and repeatability
- Print stability and registration
- Grayscale and fine detail reproduction
Most notably, the Ricoh system demonstrated its ability to consistently reproduce the GRACoL® 2013 CRPC6 reference print condition—one of the most widely used commercial print conditions in North America. Meeting this standard means that the Pro VC80000 delivers accurate, predictable color output, enabling printers to meet the demands of brand-critical work without costly color adjustments.
