Product Features
Technical Overview
The fi-8950 utilizes CIS (Contact Image Sensor) technology with RGB LED illumination for consistent, high-quality image capture across various document types. The 24-bit color depth ensures accurate color reproduction, while 8-bit grayscale depth provides smooth tonal gradation for black-and-white documents and photographs.
Scanning performance reaches 150 pages per minute (300 images per minute in duplex mode) for both color and monochrome documents. The scanner supports paper documents and envelopes, with automatic size detection for mixed batches. The RGB LED light source offers instant warm-up and consistent illumination throughout extended scanning sessions.
This section brings together practical product details such as Image Sensor Type, Optical Resolution (dpi), Scan Color, Wireless LAN, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
A strong technical summary explains how the product's interfaces, hardware profile, and operating characteristics work together in real deployment. Buyers often need this context to confirm compatibility with existing devices, expected performance in daily use, and whether installation will be straightforward for IT staff or end users.

FAQ
What is the maximum scanning speed of the Ricoh fi-8950 scanner?
The Ricoh ImageScanner fi-8950 scans at 150 pages per minute for both color and monochrome documents. In duplex mode, it processes 300 images per minute by scanning both sides of documents simultaneously. This high-speed performance enables rapid digitization of large document volumes without compromising on 600 dpi optical resolution quality.
How many sheets can the automatic document feeder hold?
The ADF has a 750-sheet capacity, allowing extended scanning sessions with minimal reloading interruptions. This substantial capacity is particularly valuable for batch scanning operations, archival projects, and high-volume document processing workflows where continuous operation is essential.
What document sizes does this scanner support?
The fi-8950 handles documents from 1.9" x 2.8" (48.26 x 71.12 mm) up to 12" x 17" (304.8 x 431.8 mm), including standard A4 size (8.27" x 11.69"/210 x 297 mm). It supports both paper documents and envelopes, with automatic size detection that simplifies scanning of mixed document batches without manual adjustment between sizes.
Does the scanner support double-sided scanning?
Yes, the fi-8950 features duplex scanning capability that processes both sides of documents in a single pass.
