to 100 sheets while the other can staple up to 50 sheets. The 2,000-sheet
saddle-stitch finisher, which also has a 250-sheet proof tray, can staple up
to 100 sheets in as many as five positions, as well as produce up to 60-page
booklets and V-fold. An optional two-/three-hole-punch unit is available for
all three finishers.
Ricoh also offers two additional optional finishers for the unit: the GBC
StreamPunch III, which can produce spiral-bound books, and the Plock-
matic—a heavy-duty booklet finisher that can produce up to 120-page
booklets and be equipped with an optional trimmer.
The Aficio 3260C offers several levels of authentication. Windows authenti-
cation is the most secure, as users’ names and passwords are authenticated
against Windows’ directory service, Active Directory. LDAP authentication
verifies users against an LDAP server in a Windows or Novell networked
environment and before allowing them to send scanned documents from
their personal e-mail accounts to other users directly from the device. User
code authentication limits access to functions according to the user code.
Basic authentication not only manages the unit’s available functions but also
limits access to stored files and to personal data in the address book. SMTP
authentication and POP before SMTP are also supported.
When authentication is enabled, users must be logged in to scan to e-mail.
The optional DataOverwriteSecurity System conforms to the National Secu-
rity Agency’s method for managing sensitive information and can automati-
cally overwrite copy, print, scan and Document Server jobs up to nine times,
which is more than any other security kit evaluated by BLI.
The Aficio 3260C’s tested color toner yield for cyan is well above the average
for the competitive group, while its yields for magenta and yellow are both
above average. The unit’s yield for black is also well above average; in fact,
it’s the second highest tested to date.
