Kyocera Document Solutions America, Inc. and Ricoh USA, Inc. announced a partnership to bring Kyocera’s TASKalfa Pro 15000c production inkjet device into Ricoh’s portfolio.
The move is the latest investment from both companies as they aim to help transactional and direct mail customers increase profitability by aligning applications to the right press. This right-sized sheet-fed inkjet press delivers productivity at an affordable price point, as a companion device to existing continuous-feed inkjet and toner devices customers currently have in their shop. The press will be available to Ricoh direct customers.
“At Kyocera we pride ourselves on helping define the future for our customers and delivering tools for them to succeed. That’s precisely why the TASKalfa Pro 15000c was engineered from the ground up with ease-of-use top of mind,” said José Estébanez, Vice President, Corporate Marketing, Kyocera Document Solutions America, Inc.
“Through this partnership with Ricoh, customers will benefit from the long-standing legacies each company has in inkjet innovation and our commitment to customers,” continued Estébanez. “Since we launched the TASKalfa Pro 15000c, we’ve already had superb feedback on how the device exceeds expectations. This partnership will help more customers to see what the device has to offer. We’re excited about the possibilities.”
“Ricoh is committed to helping our customers achieve growth and innovation in areas that are hyper-relevant to their unique business needs. We strive to always find ways for customers to achieve more as quickly as possible, and by further combining our technology innovations we’re able to enhance their teams’ experiences even more,” said Heather Poulin, Vice President, Commercial & Industrial Printing Marketing and Portfolio Management, Ricoh USA, Inc.
“This will be the most effective and efficient route to success for printers,” Poulin added. “In addition, with Ricoh’s rich Professional Services portfolio, proven software solutions, and with service being conducted by their Ricoh specialist, our customers can implement an end-to-end solution that is fully supported by the Ricoh team.”
