1.2 Background

The current HP4R2 that was launched in 2006 gained increase in unit sales by 360 % in total from the predecessor. In developing countries, it was practically positioned as high-end model and unfortunately it did not succeed in becoming a predecessor of PG for the cost gap. On the other hand, in developed countries, it was broadly accepted thanks to its affordability, reliable machine performance and high image quality. Demand for the optional network controller accelerated sales and revealed necessity of enhanced networkability. In the 16th mid-term business plan, expanding sales portion in mid to high end segment is one of the main strategies and in this point, enhancing performance and quality needs to be treated more importantly than responding to cost cut demand.

1.3 Marketing Objectives

Synergy effect in enabling sales people to offer various products, which can fill various customer needs We aim to maximize Ricoh TDV with DDs unique features - inexpensive high volume printing capability and low unit price as well as MFP and LP offer variable printings and finishing functions. Combination use of MFP or Printer and Digital Duplicator brings about a good synergy effect and defeats competitors such as Canon, Xerox and Riso who do not have sufficient lineups of various printing solution products as Ricoh does. Above all, the HP4R2.5 plays a roll as a Ricoh solution product with @Remote capability* that allows print job management and lead to low cost operation, enabling to accelerate synergy sales with Ricoh MFP and LP and expand the unit sales in North America and Europe.

*Auto meter reading and fleet reporting are available with installation of Basil.

Target educational market in North America and Europe The current market share analysis shows (see the following page) Ricoh has 35% share in US and less than 20% share in Europe for the total 400dpi segment in spite of the great cost performance and the superior image quality. We will target educational market and religious market (for US) where there still is a lot of potential and aim to surpass competitors with specification upgrades such as @Remote capability, enhanced networkability, fine mode etc. that are demanded from the markets as well, looked at as winning criteria for tenders. In addition, we will play an active role to promote sales expansions in these target markets in cooperation with each regional headquarter by proposing concrete sales strategies.

Seize sales portion from low-end models Mid to high-end segments are more focused in the 16th mid-term business plan. We will have more promotion activities on selling mid to high-end models and aim to seize sales portion from low-end models. In developing countries, increasing unit sales in response to customer needs for machine reliability and enhanced functionality will lead to raising the supply coverage

*Note =Applicable models= Ricoh: HP4R2 (400dpi) Riso: RZ3xx / 5xx series (300 x 600 dpi) Duplo: DP2xx / 5xx series (300 x 600 dpi)

RZ3xx and DP2xx series are more likely to compete against the model PT than HP4R2. However, these models are regarded as 400dpi in the classification system organized by JBMIA (Japan Business Machine Industry Association) and included in the above graph. Competition between HP4R2 and its competitors cannot necessarily be found here.

2.3 Enhanced Color Ink Variation

2.3.1. Custom Made Color Inks Custom Made Color Inks have been one of the best features achieved on Digital Duplicator while not being achieved on MFP/LP. Demands for spot color printing on stationeries with the original company / organization color still remain strong. Evaluation tests for the current non-RGS compliant CM color inks for HP4 series were conducted and confirmed they meet the Ricoh Global Standard. In 2008, we re-launched CM color inks as RGS (Ricoh Global Standard) compliant products that are guaranteed by Ricoh.

2.2.3. Additional Colors in Standard Ink New color variations Reflex blue, Hunter green, Burgundy and Violet are newly available as the Type VI color ink in response to requests from end users. * Launch date is scheduled in FY09 but varies depending on colors. Details will be announced later.

2.4 Noise Reduction

Noise reduction is implemented for the model HP4R2 by these measures. Having sound absorbing pads on places where noise stands out. Making renovation to the noise sources

Noise comparison (90cpm)

This noise reduction allows you to use the machine more comfortably in schools and offices where people gather.

2.5 Reliable Paper Feed

2.5.1. Better Paper Alignment New paper delivery tray ensures better paper alignment. By adding Buffer Fins on the side fences, it slows papers falling down and reduces set-off. Customers can move printed papers smoothly to finishing operations.

2.5.2. Retry Paper Feed

Retry paper feed mechanism that was invented for model PG. The reliability was proved at several field tests and market place where the most poor quality paper is used. Even thin and irregular sized paper does not affect its productivity.

2.6 Network Controller

2.6.1. RPCS Network Controller FVLT New network controller FV-Lt achieves more functions with reasonable price than the predecessor EG-Lt. Customer can use it with the same usability as Ricoh MFP/LP through RPCS. Enhanced networkability gives the HP4R2.5 more possibility to enter into government offices, schools and corporations where LAN environment is well established.

2.6.2. Ricoh Network Utility Versatility with Ricoh Network utilities Web Image Monitor, Smart Device Monitor for Admin (Laurel) and Desktop Binder SmartDeviceMonitor (Maple) for Client makes it easier to make joint sales with MFP/LP.

Main functions *The following functions are available on the HP4R2.5.

2.6.3. @Remote Capability FV-Lt controller enables @Remote capability (limited number of services) on the HP4R2.5. @Remote capability is considered more necessary for mid range models than high-ends, as more than one unit are installed at the same site in many cases and customer like to control the usage for cost-wise operation. Adding this capability not only boosts joint sales proposal with MFP and LP, but also accelerates sales to customers who already have Basil in their LAN

Services available - Auto meter reading (Master, page count) - Reporting Please note that the device type is equivalent to a GW based MIB device in Remote. Installation of Basil is needed to activate these services.

Please refer to the NRS NPLI for detail of @Remote system.

6 Supply Specifications

6.1 Yield

!!The black ink, color inks and master are common to the HP4/HP4R2/HP4R2.5!!

6.2 Yield Targets

The number of copies per cartridge can be estimated using the following formula.

A x Y X = B + (Y x Z)

A: Amount of ink per cartridge

For the Model HP4-R2.5, this is 600g, A=600

Z: Ink consumed per copy

Reference: Ink consumption (gram) per one square meter (m2) for Model HP4-R2.5 taken from evaluation test result A3 Drum A4 Drum

Standard Economy mode

Standard Economy mode

90cpm 90cpm 90cpm 90cpm 23C 65% humidity Avg. 4.1 3.4 4.8 4.3

E.g.) Z: Ink consumption per copy (A3 drum, A4 paper [Type 6200], 6% chart, printing speed: 90ppm, Standard mode)

Z = 4.1 x (0.21 x 0.297) x 0.06 = 0.015g

B: Ink consumed per ejected master

PACKAGING YIELD

Model HP4/-R2/-R2.5 A3 Master

For the Model HP4-R2.5, the consumption is as follows

E.g.) Sample Ink Yield Calculation results (normal temperatures, 90cpm, A3 drum, A4 paper, 6% chart)

C/O = 30 X = (600 x 30) / {4.8 + (30 x 0.015)} = 3,429 copies C/O = 50 X = (600 x 50) / {4.8 + (50 x 0.015)} = 5,405 copies C/O = 100 X = (600 x 100) / {4.8 + (100 x 0.015)} = 9,523 copies C/O = 200 X = (600 x 200) / {4.8 + (200 x 0.015)} = 15,385 copies
