Exceptional wide-format color — inside and out
The RICOH®Pro L4130/L4160 wide format color printer produces brilliant signs, banners, wallcoverings, wraps
and more for indoor or outdoor advertising and point-of-sale displays. Your customers will notice how crisp
and vivid your graphics look. You’ll notice how easy they were to make. It uses eco-friendly, aqueous latex ink
and up to a six-color process printing, including orange and green, plus white, for a much wider color gamut.
Vibrant pastels and accurate spot colors for corporate logos are the results, enabling you to meet a wider
range of your application needs.
Innovative new ink technology on display
Don’t compromise any longer. The RICOH Pro L4130/L4160 produces
outstanding color that withstands the harshest elements — without
being harsh on you or the environment. It intensifies black ink density and
enhances gloss for bolder, more compelling graphics. The ink can also be
used on an array of substrates, including plastic, vinyl, clear film, backlit
materials and more. Plus, the ink requires only a 140°F (60°C) cold cure,
so it easily handles a wide range of heat-sensitive media.
Produce signs quickly
Exceptional graphics only work if the right audience is there to see them.
That’s why you need to be able to produce signs quickly and reach
audiences at the right time. The RICOH Pro L4130/L4160 was designed for
efficency and fast throughput. With eight ink cartridges, you can choose
almost any configuration at the time of installation. Plus, when set up in
4-color mode, two ink cartridges are designated for each color, so your
print job won’t stop, even when the first cartridge is out of ink. You won’t
have to wait long for it to dry either. An array of heaters on the platen
maintains proper temperatures during pre-printing, printing and the drying
process to ensure that any additional finishing can begin immediately.
More colors, including white, for more impact
The RICOH Pro L4130/L4160 can produce six-color process printing —
adding orange and green to the standard 4-color (CMYK) setup: you have
more color options and increased color gamut for producing exceptional,
color reproductions on any surface. In addition, with that configuration,
white ink enables you to use it as a base color and create fresh images that
pop on clear substrates, too.

Good for business, great for you
Drive print performance the easy way
The RICOH Pro L4130/L4160 uses the powerful Ricoh Software RIP
designed specifically to simplify printing graphics-rich output. The
intuitive, icon-based interface lets you seamlessly check settings
and progress from the main screen. You can even set thousands of
“favorites” and quickly reuse settings you’ve used previously. Three-
layer prints enable you to print on more types of material, including
transparent material and window clings. The driver can perform layout
imposition of several jobs to reduce media waste, and run test prints,
improving both the quality and efficiency of your operation.
Print heads in a new direction
With innovative high-speed print heads, the RICOH Pro L4130/L4160
delivers high-quality output time after time. Each of the two Piezo
print heads are configured with 1,280 nozzles per head to ensure the
outstanding results, as a precise drop is dispensed at the exact location
— every time. Additionally, with multi-jetting, three drops of various
sizes are applied simultaneously to accommodate varying media and/or
density requirements.
Easy to set up and environmentally friendly
The RICOH Pro L4130/L4160 uses aqueous durable latex ink to
produce exceptional wide format color. Solvent-based printers,
typically using inks with high volatile organic compounds (VOCs),
can be difficult to install because they require costly ventilation and
air discharge systems. Our innovative printer can be used almost
anywhere. Plus, you don’t have to change the entire ink cartridge
when it runs low. Simply replace the ink pack to reduce waste and
cost. And because it uses standard 110V outlets, power costs are low.
