New compact and affordable document scanner delivers business-class performance, flexible workflows, and exceptional value for everyday business scanning

SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--PFU America, Inc., the U.S.-based subsidiary of PFU Limited and the leader in document scanning solutions, today announced the launch of the RICOH SP-2240N, a compact, reliable, and affordable document scanner designed to meet the everyday scanning needs of businesses and departmental teams. Built on the trusted foundation of the award-winning RICOH fi Series technology, the SP-2240N delivers high-quality performance, intuitive operation, and flexible connectivity, offering an ideal balance of functionality and value for cost-conscious organizations.

As businesses, particularly small and mid-sized organizations and departmental teams within larger organizations, continue to manage paper-intensive workflows, the need for efficient digitization continues to grow. The SP-2240N enables fast, reliable digitization of invoices, contracts, IDs, and internal documents without added complexity. With its compact design, ease of use, and dependable performance, the scanner is well-suited for shared environments such as healthcare clinics, banks, hospitality, and retail back offices, where consistent, high-quality scanning is essential.

As demand grows for reliable, cost-effective document scanning, organizations are looking to digitize workflows without the cost and complexity of high-end enterprise infrastructure. The SP-2240N is designed to address this need, delivering business-class performance and image quality in a compact, easy-to-use solution. Positioned between personal-use scanners and more complex, high-end systems, the SP-2240N provides the right balance of capability, simplicity, and value for everyday business environments.

Powered by PFU’s next-generation iiGA system-on-a-chip, the scanner brings advanced image processing directly into the device, helping ensure consistent, high-quality results while supporting flexible workflows, including PC-less scanning.

Key features and benefits include:

• Balanced performance and value: Built on industry-leading RICOH fi Series technology, the SP-2240N delivers reliable, high-quality scanning for everyday business workflows while maintaining cost efficiency.
• Fast, accurate scanning: Achieves speeds of up to 40 pages per minute (PPM) and 80 images per minute (IPM) with an 80-sheet automatic document feeder, enabling efficient processing of daily workloads.
• Flexible document handling: Supports a wide range of document types, from plastic ID cards to folded A3 documents, making it ideal for mixed batch scanning.
• Advanced image quality and OCR accuracy: Powered by PFU’s proprietary Clear Image Capture and intelligent image processing technology, delivering consistently high-quality scans and reducing manual correction work.
• PC-less scanning flexibility with on-device processing: With DirectScan functionality, users can scan directly from the device without a PC. PFU’s next-generation iiGA system-on-a-chip enables key image processing functions such as automatic rotation and blank page removal to occur within the scanner, helping ensure consistent output while reducing reliance on connected PCs.
• Simple, intuitive operation: One-touch scanning and enhanced PaperStream ClickScan software enable fast, easy digitization, whether scanning from the device or directly from a desktop folder.
• Reliable paper handling and document protection: Real-time monitoring and advanced feeding technologies help protect important documents and ensure smooth operation.
• Compact, business-ready design: Space-saving footprint and clean design make the SP-2240N suitable for both back-office and customer-facing environments.

“The RICOH SP-2240N represents what many organizations are looking for today—a practical and reliable scanning solution that balances performance, ease of use, and cost,” said Satoshi Kubo, President and CEO, PFU America, Inc. “As businesses work to digitize documents with limited IT resources, the SP-2240N delivers consistent, high-quality results across shared environments, with the flexibility to process scans directly on the device when a PC is not available.”
