RISO UK is a leading provider of high-speed print solutions, supporting schools and multi-academy trusts across the UK. With decades of experience in the education sector, we understand the operational pressures trusts face—balancing performance, cost-efficiency, reliability, and sustainability across multiple sites.
What sets RISO apart is our cold inkjet technology, which uses no heat in the printing process and consumes up to 91% less energy than traditional toner-based devices. This enables trusts to significantly reduce both environmental impact and running costs.
Our devices are engineered for exceptional reliability, with fewer moving parts and no heat-related wear, resulting in reduced maintenance, fewer paper jams, and minimal downtime. With print speeds of up to 165 ppm and support for media from 45gsm to 200gsm, RISO solutions are built to meet the demands of busy school environments.
We pride ourselves on being more than a supplier. Through a consultative approach, dedicated UK-based support, and long-term partnerships, we deliver tailored solutions that align with each trust’s operational and sustainability goals—setting us apart from traditional print providers.
RISO UK provides high-performance print solutions designed to meet the needs of multi-academy trusts and schools operating in fast-paced, high-volume environments. Our technology enables trusts to produce large volumes of printed materials quickly, cost-effectively, and reliably.
Our cold inkjet printers deliver ultra-fast output (up to 165 pages per minute), low running costs on the market, and consistent quality, making them ideal for producing teaching resources, exam papers, reports, and internal communications. By bringing print in-house, trusts can reduce outsourcing costs, improve turnaround times, and maintain greater control over output.
For multi-site trusts, we offer scalable solutions that standardise print infrastructure across schools, helping to reduce total cost of ownership and simplify management. Our devices support a wide range of media—from 45gsm to 200gsm—allowing everything from worksheets to professional booklets to be produced efficiently.
We integrate with leading print management software including PaperCut, enabling secure printing, cost tracking, and user authentication—supporting safeguarding, compliance, and budget control.
By eliminating the need for heat and toner, our technology reduces energy consumption and maintenance requirements, creating a more efficient and sustainable print environment across the trust.
RISO UK is committed to supporting school trusts in improving operational efficiency while contributing to wider educational and sustainability goals. We work closely with trusts to understand their challenges and provide tailored solutions that deliver measurable impact.
By reducing energy consumption and print waste, our cold inkjet technology helps trusts lower their carbon footprint and progress towards sustainability targets. At the same time, our reliable, high-speed devices minimise disruption, enabling staff to focus on teaching and learning rather than managing print issues.
We provide end-to-end support, including consultation, on-site demonstrations, installation, training, and ongoing service. Our responsive technical team, with an on-site average response time of 3 hours, ensures minimal downtime, while our account management approach supports long-term planning and continuous improvement across the trust. We offer free print energy and cost reviews to help schools assess their current printing set up.
Beyond our technology, we actively engage with the education sector—supporting events, sharing best practice, and working alongside trusts to identify smarter, more efficient ways of working.
By helping trusts streamline processes, reduce costs, and improve reliability, we enable them to redirect valuable time and resources back into what matters most: delivering high-quality education and better outcomes for pupils.
