Ricoh Announces New Corporate Logo - New Design Reflects Strong
Global Commitment 


TOKYO, April 20  /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Ricoh Company, Ltd. today unveiled
its new corporate logo, which will become effective in September this year. The
new logo symbolizes the Ricoh Group's increased global presence.

The simple elegant design reflects Ricoh's three core values: 1) Simplify
knowledge creation, 2) Think solutions that fit, 3) Harmonize with the
environment.

The rounded edges of the new logo were designed to express intelligence
tempered by a friendly and human disposition. At the same time readability on a
global scale is greatly enhanced.

Since 1986, when the current logo has been in use, Ricoh has grown into a
global leader in the office solutions business, especially after the advent of
the networked digital era. As Ricoh approaches its 70th anniversary, in
February 2006, the timing is perfect for an affirmation of Ricoh as a global
brand.
