Bring colour, versioning and roll-fed production together for commercial communications.
direct mail & marketing collateral
Combine variable text and images for targeted mail, customer offers and campaign materials. Use the data to organise versions and the print layout to suit the final cut and fold.
catalogues, manuals & publications
Explore colour-rich book sections and custom publications without treating every edition as a large static order. Agree how pages and sections will be tracked through the finishing route.
inkjet quality
bring paper choice into the conversation.
Evaluate pigment ink, drying and stock together for commercial colour work.
ink and dryer technology
Ricoh describes the VC70000's drying and ink technology as supporting suitable offset-coated stocks without pre-treatment. Test the actual paper and coverage; this does not imply every coated stock is suitable.
quality mode versus speed
The Australian listing specifies 1,200 × 1,200 dpi at 50 m/min. Choose the mode after evaluating text, tonal detail and solids on the intended material, then assess the finished piece.
productivity
plan for the complete production run.
Use Australian mode ratings to compare throughput and media requirements.
120 m/min, with a high-speed option
The Australian Pro VC70000 listing gives 120 m/min at 600 × 600 dpi and 150 m/min with the high-speed option. Media is listed at 40–250 g/m² for 120 m/min and 64–157 g/m² for 150 m/min.
processing that keeps pace
A production digital front end coordinates complex files and variable data. Build the workflow around job submission, imposition, proof approval and recovery of interrupted work.
keep the model distinction clear
This page covers the Pro VC70000. Controller, inspection and automation equipment must be selected for that model and your production requirements; additional technology is not assumed to be standard.
finishing & workflow
design the line around the output.
Carry quality and job integrity through to the finished publication or mail piece.
cut, fold, bind or rewind
Plan a compatible pre- and post-processing route for the intended work. Allow for roll changes, buffering and output collection as well as the rated press speed.
validate the full application
Use representative files and actual production stock for acceptance checks. Review registration, drying, finishing quality and the treatment of incomplete sets together.
