Ricoh's Universal Print Driver provides a single intelligent advanced
driver, which can be used across your fleet of Multifunction Products and Laser
Printers. The Universal Print Driver lets you simplify printer support and lower
management costs without sacrificing the features important to your users.
Removes a big burden from IT departments
Say good-bye to the hassle of supporting device-specific drivers by leveraging Ricoh's
Universal Print Driver. The UPD gives end-users the ability to output to virtually
any printing device. There is no need to change drivers when new printers or MFPs
are installed, and the same Universal Print Driver can be used for both MFPs and
laser printers.
Reduces hidden support costs and lowers TCO
Save time certifying new machines. Once the Universal Print Driver is certified
for use, only the new functionality needs to be tested saving IT resources. Support
costs are lowered by reducing calls to Helpdesk personnel and through easier and
more streamlined device management.
Delivers full-featured printing to your users
Ricoh's Universal Print Driver uses bidirectional communication to connect with
and determine the capabilities of the printing device. For newer devices, the Universal
Print Driver provides the full functionality of the device including advanced features
and finishing capabilities. (See

For older model machines and most 3rd-party devices, the driver enables the maximum
functionality from a set of universal generic printing features including: paper,
layout, print quality, duplex, staple and more.
Provides a better printing experience
Give your users a consistent printing interface while making it obvious and easy
to know which driver to choose. By simplifying the process for users, unsuccessful
printing is reduced with fewer calls to the Helpdesk.
