Ricoh USA announced a strategic partnership with LogoJET, expanding its graphic communications portfolio with small-format, direct-to-object (DTO) UV-printing solutions. As part of the partnership, Ricoh said it will offer LogoJET DTO printers in its portfolio of production hardware, software, workflow, and services.
The company attributes the growing demand for more customized, on-demand, and efficient printing solutions across a wide range of industries, noting that the U.S. DTO market is projected to grow at a 9.5% CAGR from 2025-2030.
“DTO represents a natural extension of digital production for customers looking to diversify and grow,” said Andrew Vecci, director, product & portfolio management at Ricoh USA. “By combining LogoJET’s DTO platforms with Ricoh’s expertise in production print integration, customers gain a scalable way to add new applications while fitting DTO seamlessly into their existing production environments.”
As LogoJET’s first distribution partner in North America, Ricoh said the partnership expands access to specialized DTO technology “while supporting customers through consulting, workflow design, software integration, and services aligned with their broader print operations.”
“Direct-to-object printing is one of the fastest ways for print providers to expand into higher-margin applications, from signage to promotional products,” said Susan Cox, CEO and founder of LogoJET. “Through our partnership with Ricoh, we’re extending this capability across their vast network, with aligned support and a shared customer-first culture. We’re excited and proud to take this step beyond our direct sales model, and Ricoh was a very intentional choice.”
LogoJET’s DTO printers are designed specifically for printing on dimensional and specialty items, supporting a wide range of substrates and applications. Through this partnership, Ricoh said its customers can incorporate DTO into “mixed production environments alongside sheetfed, inkjet, wide-format, and finishing solutions.”
