Ricoh says that the new machines will help lower a businesses’ total cost of ownership without sacrificing image quality of 1200 x 1200 dpi resolution. It adds that cost per page is driven down by three colour cartridges that yield 21,000 prints each and one black cartridge that yields 24,000 prints.
Additionally, Ricoh’s Economy Color Mode helps users save on consumables by reducing the amount of toner used.
