Hello,

You didn't say which printer you were interested in. The RB5000 ring binding system is available for most of Ricoh's monochrome and color production printers. I have attached a specifications sheet on it from the user guide for you. It's not a true coil bind but a plastic ring bind that can be clicked open, similar to GBC's ProClick system, but inline vs. offline.

I haven't heard of a online coil binder from Ricoh either. Like [email protected] said the ring binder will punch and install clip on rings that are similar to a GBC binder. You can also get a GBC stream punch that would punch the holes for the coils but not install them.

don't know about Ricoh, but Xerox now has the GBC eBinder 200 inline available for color and b&w machines.

It punches and binds inline.

It was just word of mouth that I heard about this printer.. I was inquiring about the coil binding printers, and specifically ricoh, but I had no idea what the printer was called.. (The reason for my post.) But thanks for the links. I will definitely look more into it. 3 years in the digital print business all self taught and being up in the north I don't get to see many machines or talk to any other digital printers. Thank you for your help

So does that insert a coil binding ? The Ricoh ring binder will create a "lay flat wrap around" booklet but it's not a coil. Since it's from GBC I bet it's the same binding the Ricoh coil binder uses.

it's probably similar if not the same. I'm not aware of the Ricoh module, but the GBC module that attaches to the Xerox machines sounds similar to what you are describing. It uses an "elliptical comb element".
