Ricoh Production Print Solutions (Ricoh), a leading provider of digital output solutions, today announced that it has further expanded its critical communications suite of solutions, empowering printers of all sizes with easy-to-use, cost-effective tools and solutions that verify that each piece was printed and track that each piece was confirmed with limited manual effort. The newest enhancement to RICOH TotalFlow DocEnhancer is the Verification Feature. This easy-to-use feature enables customers to very simply add a unique barcode to documents that identifies each piece within a PDF file, and then integrates with scan or camera technology to track and report that each piece was properly produced - adding a level of integrity, which is particularly necessary when government regulations or privacy issues require perfect output.
TotalFlow DocEnhancer is an Adobe® Acrobat plug-in that enables customers to edit print-ready PDF files instantly directly on the shop floor. Now with the Verification Feature, printers can scan the barcode at any point during the production process to track progress, create a visual report showing the percent of job completion, reconcile pieces that are missing, and initiate a reprint job.
Other new features that have been added to TotalFlow DocEnhancer PDF plug-in include:
With TotalFlow DocEnhancer, changes that previously took longer periods of time can be handled immediately including:
