PFU America, Inc., the U.S.-based subsidiary of PFU Limited and the leader in document scanning solutions, today announced the launch of the RICOH SP-2240, a compact, reliable, and affordable document scanner designed to meet the everyday scanning needs of businesses and departmental teams. Built on the trusted foundation of the award-winning RICOH fi Series technology, the SP-2240 delivers essential scanning functionality, high-quality performance, and intuitive operation, offering an ideal balance of capability and value for cost-conscious organizations.

As businesses, particularly small and mid-sized organizations and departmental teams within larger organizations, continue to manage paper-intensive workflows, the need for efficient digitization continues to grow. The SP-2240 enables fast, reliable digitization of invoices, contracts, IDs, and internal documents without added complexity. With its compact design, ease of use, and dependable performance, the scanner is well-suited for environments such as healthcare clinics, banks, hospitality, and retail back offices, where consistent, high-quality scanning is essential.

As demand grows for reliable, cost-effective document scanning, organizations are looking to digitize workflows without the cost and complexity of high-end enterprise infrastructure. The SP-2240 is designed to address this need, delivering business-class performance and image quality in a compact, easy-to-use solution.
