WEST CALDWELL, N.J., March 2 -- Ricoh Americas Corporation, in conjunction with Kodak's Print On-Demand Solutions Group, announced today the full availability of the new C-80 Print Controller, a CREO Color Server for the powerful Ricoh PRO C900 color production system. Meeting the needs of print service providers in the commercial print, print-for-pay and in-plant markets, the advanced C-80 Print Controller enables Ricoh users to increase the productivity of their systems. Powered by CREO Color Server Technology, the new C-80 Print Controller also provides users superior output options ensuring the creation of high-quality, professional documents.
With the introduction of the C-80 Print Controller, Ricoh print production customers can choose CREO Color Server Technology for workflows with open connectivity using JDF standards.
