Ricoh Dataworks3 Variable Data Printing Solutions Create, Distribute and Save

Customised communications create opportunities. They speak directly to readers with a precision that

conventional documents can’t match. They are essential for building relationships, enticing prospects

and growing revenue.

Whether you are producing direct mail, transactional documents or complex transpromotional

documents, the RICOH® Dataworks3 software suite makes your variable data printing (VDP) jobs

faster, easier and much less expensive. This easy-to-use, Windows-based software enables you to take

unformatted data from virtually any source, merge it into any pre-designed template and distribute

the output to any Ricoh print engine, e-mail, fax or archive system.

Dataworks3 software enables you to manage data-driven documents from creation through to

delivery. It automates back-end processing and accelerates production - so you can communicate

with your customers while significantly reducing operating costs yet making a stronger impact on

your audience.

Dataworks3 DM Creates Powerful Direct MailDataworks3 DM software is an affordable, template-driven application that

makes it fast and easy to build powerful direct mail programs.

• Quickly customise flyers, three-fold mailers, postcards, letters and many other one-to-

one direct mail pieces by adding text and graphics to a standard template.

• Populate the template with data files in virtually any file format, using an intuitive,

Windows-based user interface.

• Send the populated, customised documents to any Ricoh device for high-quality color

or black & white output.

• Improve functionality, minimise manual steps and generate more professional output

compared to traditional mail merge applications.

• Support multichannel marketing efforts by delivering one-to-one documents for output

to e-mail applications and fax systems.

Dataworks3 SMB Streamlines Transactional DocumentsChoose Dataworks3 SMB software to establish a fully automated VDP

workflow for a wide variety of critical transactional documents.

• Design distinctive, custom forms — for invoices, cheques, reports, account statements

and other documents — quickly and easily.

• Connect to virtually any host source and Dataworks3 SMB software automatically

populates existing forms with accurate transactional data.

• Automatically send print-ready documents to the Ricoh output device of your choice

for professional quality results.

• Streamline workflow by setting up the software to query a database on a schedule (eg

monthly), process the data (eg pending invoices), apply pre-arranged rules, populate

forms and print the documents — without any user intervention.

• Maximise flexibility with powerful routing capabilities. Apply rules to print different

parts of the same document in color and black & white, print in color only for select

recipients, or automatically send documents for e-mail, fax delivery or archiving.

• Eliminate the need to purchase and store pre-printed forms, letterhead and other pre-

printed stationery.
