Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Ricoh fi-8930 is actually for

Most printer pages just tell you what a printer does. Here's the honest version: when this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We sell a lot of these for a reason, but the reason is not "every office."

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • You run a service bureau, BPO, government records office, or healthcare records department doing 30,000-110,000 pages a day across multiple shifts.
  • You scan A3 / 11x17 originals daily — engineering drawings, medical charts, large forms — and need them at 130 ppm full speed.
  • You replace mixed batches without sorting — A8 receipts to A3 plans in the same hopper; the fi-8930's mixed-batch handling and ultrasonic double-feed detection are the reason you pick it over a Kodak.
  • You're replacing an fi-7900 or fi-7800 — fi-8930 is the direct successor with the bigger 750-sheet hopper and the new 4.3" touchscreen.
  • You need ISIS, TWAIN, and PaperStream IP drivers for your existing capture software (Kofax, EzeScan, Square 9, Laserfiche).
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You scan 10,000-30,000 pages a day — the machine is overbuilt for that, but the per-sheet feed reliability is worth it on long-life jobs.
  • You want PC-less scan-to-folder for a few job buttons — works through PaperStream NX Manager, but at this volume most shops still drive it from a capture station.
  • You're moving from a Kodak i4000 series — operators adapt to the Ricoh feed mechanics in a week, expect retraining time.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You scan under 10,000 pages a day — you're paying for a 130 ppm production scanner you'll never load. Get the fi-8820 (100 ppm, 500-sheet ADF) or fi-8270 (70 ppm, desktop) instead.
  • You need a flatbed — the fi-8930 is ADF-only; pair it with an fi-70F or fi-7700 for fragile/bound originals.
  • You don't have a dedicated scan operator — this is a production unit; the throughput only happens with a person feeding hoppers.
  • You're tight on desk space — this is 18.4 x 23.0 x 15.4 inches and needs clearance front and back for the 750-sheet output stacker.
  • You scan very fragile or one-of-a-kind originals — a flatbed scanner protects them better; the fi-8930's feed is fast but it's still a feed.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Ricoh fi-8930 is a high-volume A3 production scanner built for service bureaus, BPOs, healthcare records, and government archive operations doing 30,000-110,000 pages a day. It runs at 130 ppm / 260 ipm in color at 200/300 dpi with a 750-sheet single-pass duplex ADF — the largest hopper in the fi-series and the reason it replaces the fi-7900 in heavy-shift environments. Optical resolution is 600 dpi, daily duty cycle is rated 110,000 sheets across two to eight-hour shifts, and the new 4.3-inch color touchscreen handles operator job selection without a host PC. Mixed-batch handling is the differentiator: A8 receipts up to A3 / 11x17 plans in the same hopper, with ultrasonic double-feed detection, paper-protection sensors, and Ricoh's iSOP (Intelligent Sonic Paper Protection) that listens for crumple sounds before they jam. PaperStream IP and PaperStream Capture Pro ship in the box; ISIS and TWAIN drivers cover Kofax, Laserfiche, Square 9, EzeScan, and most other capture platforms. Connectivity is USB 3.2 Gen 1x1 plus Gigabit Ethernet. The thing buyers regret: under-loading it. At 30,000 pages/day the per-page cost is great; at 5,000 you bought the wrong scanner.

Supplies & consumables

Toner, yields, and what to actually reorder

The #1 question we get on this printer is "which toner do I buy?" Short answer: you have two cartridge options and a drum. Standard yield TN830 covers roughly 1,200 pages. High yield TN830XL covers roughly 4,500 pages and is the better value for most offices. Pick XL unless you print very little.

The drum unit (DR810) is separate and usually lasts 15,000 to 30,000 pages before it needs replacing. At a typical small office volume, expect to change it once every 2 to 4 years.

If you lease this printer through us, toner and drum are included. You never pay for supplies separately. That's usually the better deal once you add up real costs over 3 years.

What customers actually say

The 5-star consensus: "it just works"

Small sample size, high signal. The 3 verified reviewers picked this model to replace older inkjets or aging Ricoh machines. Common threads in the feedback:

  • "Been using the fi-8930 in our accounting office for about 8 months now. The dual-sided scanning is fast and reliable, and the automatic document feeder handles thick mixed batches without jamming. Definitely worth the investment for high-volume scanning."
  • "Good scanner for the price point. Handles our mortgage documents and medical records well. Setup took longer than expected and the software could be more intuitive, but the actual scanning performance is solid."
  • "IT department bought three of these for our document digitization project. The build quality feels professional, paper handling is consistent, and network scanning to our shared drive works without issues. Would buy again."

FAQ

Ricoh fi-8930, common questions

The questions we get asked most often on this model. If yours isn't here, call (704) 741-0821 and get an answer in about 30 seconds.

The Ricoh fi-8930 is a high-volume production scanner and does not use toner, as it is not a printer or copier. Instead, it requires periodic replacement of consumables like pick rollers to maintain performance. The scanner is designed for high-volume scanning, capable of handling up to 110,000 sheets daily. For consumables, you would need items such as the Pick Roller Set or Consumable and Cleaning ScanAid Kit. When you lease through us with consumables included, you never pay for these items separately.
The Ricoh fi-8930 is a high-volume production scanner designed for heavy-duty environments, capable of scanning up to 110,000 sheets daily at speeds of 130 ppm / 260 ipm. It features a 750-sheet ADF and advanced technologies like ultrasonic double-feed detection and iSOP for paper protection. In contrast, the Ricoh fi-8170 is a high-volume desktop scanner suited for departments or service bureaus, with a daily volume of up to 7,000 sheets and a speed of 70 ppm / 140 ipm. The fi-8170 has a smaller 100-sheet ADF and is more compact, making it ideal for smaller offices or workgroups. For small offices with lower scanning needs, the fi-8170 offers a more cost-effective solution.
The Ricoh fi-8930 is designed for high-volume scanning environments, such as service bureaus or large enterprises, with a daily capacity of up to 110,000 sheets. Its high speed (130 ppm / 260 ipm) and advanced features like a 750-sheet ADF and mixed-batch handling make it overkill for most small businesses. Small businesses with lower scanning needs may find the fi-8930 too robust and costly. For a more suitable option, consider stepping up to a commercial scanner or printer that better matches your volume requirements.
The Ricoh fi-8930 is a production scanner and does not have printing capabilities, whether in color or monochrome. If you need a color printer, consider alternatives such as the Ricoh MP C307, Ricoh MP C4504, or Ricoh MP C6004, which are designed for color printing and may better suit your needs.
