You just got the “final proof” back from the print shop, and your company’s signature color—that specific, vibrant shade you spent weeks perfecting with your designer—looks… a little off. A little dull. It doesn’t pop. The paper feels flimsier than you expected. And to top it off, they’re three days late, and your big event is this weekend.
Sound familiar?
If you’re a business owner or marketer in Philadelphia, you’ve likely felt that frustration. You have a crystal-clear vision for your brand, but getting that vision onto paper often means battling outside vendors, compromising on quality, and paying rush charges for the privilege.
What if you could take back control? What if you could go from a brilliant idea to a stack of stunning, professionally printed materials, right in your own office, in a matter of hours?
This isn’t a fantasy. This is what the Ricoh Pro C5300s series is all about. Forget what you know about office copiers; this is a compact, powerful production printer designed to bring your brand’s story to life, on your terms.
Meet Impossible Deadlines with Serious Speed
In business, speed is opportunity. Waiting days for a print run can mean missing out on a valuable connection or a last-minute event. The Ricoh Pro C5300s is built to turn your ideas into reality at a speed that keeps up with your ambition.
Let’s break down what that means in the real world:
- Incredible Print Speed: The Pro C5300s model prints at a swift 65 pages per minute (ppm), while the Pro C5310s flies at 80 ppm. Need 500 full-color flyers for a networking event at the Chamber of Commerce tomorrow? That job could be done and sitting on your desk in under 8 minutes.
- Massive Paper Capacity: Worried about constantly reloading paper on big jobs? The standard capacity is a huge 3,850 sheets, expandable up to 8,550 sheets. You can load it, press go, and walk away.
- No-Stop Printing: The system is smart. It has Active Tray Indicators that light up to show you which paper tray is in use. This means you can refill the other trays while the machine is still printing. The workflow never has to stop.
And it’s not just about printing. The standard 220-sheet document feeder scans both sides of a page in a single pass, digitizing documents at an incredible 240 images per minute. You can turn filing cabinets into searchable PDFs and share proposals instantly, keeping your entire workflow moving at top speed.
Finally, Color That’s Actually Your Color
Your brand deserves better than “good enough.” Your marketing materials are a physical handshake with your clients, and their quality speaks volumes. The Pro C5300s delivers jaw-dropping image quality that makes people take a second look.
The secret is its 2,400 x 4,800 dpi resolution.
What does that techy number actually mean for you?
- It means razor-sharp text, even in the fine print.
- It means photos and images are vibrant and full of life, not dull or pixelated.
- Most importantly, it means your brand colors are perfect every time.
The machine uses advanced sensors to constantly calibrate itself, ensuring that the color on page one is identical to the color on page one thousand. You can finally have confidence that your vision is being reproduced exactly as you intended.
Creative Freedom: Print on Paper You’ve Only Dreamed Of
Here’s where things get really exciting. Your creativity shouldn’t be boxed in by your printer’s limitations. The Pro C5300s opens up a whole new world of what you can produce in-house.
Ever wanted to…
- Print on thick, heavy cardstock? Create business cards, invitations, and postcards up to 360gsm that have that premium, substantial feel.
