Ricoh Printers – FAQ Corporate

How do I print to a Ricoh printer?

For corporate devices when you select print on a document there will be two options available:

  • FollowMe on MVS276
  • FollowMeColour on MVS276

The default printer will be FollowMe on MVS276 this will also be for both A3 and A4 printing.  

You should only use the colour option when a colour print is required.  Remember colour printing is 10 times more expensive than mono and has a larger environmental impact.

Why do I need a PIN number?

The PIN will allow you to release your prints from any device connected to the network.  

If you do not have your PIN or if you forget your PIN please follow the guidance below:

Corporate Users:

Raise an ICT Service desk call.

Where will I collect my prints from?

FollowMe printing allows prints to be collected from any Ricoh Multi-Function Device (MFD) on the network.  

Corporate Users can print to any print connected to the corporate network.  Printers can be found in the following areas:

At other corporate sites please check with the main admin person for printer locations.

Can I print when working from home?
Yes for corporate users only.  By selecting FollowMe on MVS276 on the printer option your print will be sent to the corporate network.  You can collect the print from any corporate network MFD by entering your PIN.  The print will only be held for 48 hours so if not collected in that time it will automatically be deleted.

All staff are encouraged to consider if you need to print a document, if yes then use the most economical device available. Make sure you only print in colour when necessary. The Copy Shop also have higher volume devices with additional functionality so for any high-volume prints or specialised printing please contact the Copy Shop on PrintOrders@moray.gov.uk.

A Ricoh MFD request form will be sent to the person requesting the move this needs to be completed and returned to printorders@moray.gov.uk along with cost centre codes before the move request will be submitted to Ricoh. Ricoh will review and schedule the date, and you will be informed when the shift will take place
