Ricoh 2228C Printer Review

Ricoh may not be the most well-known printer manufacturer out there, but the products it delivers are some of the most highly praised. The Aficio series, specifically, have delivered some of the best office-oriented devices on the market. The Ricoh Aficio 2228c is no exception, as it is built to handle the needs of mid-sized work environments. It was designed to grow with increasing volumes and perform problem-free for years at a monthly duty cycle of 83,000 prints per month. Its multiple functions also allow it to handle a variety of tasks.

As it is a color laser printer, this unit requires four Ricoh 2228c toner cartridges. Cyan, magenta, yellow and black are the colors of printer toner that are used. The black Aficio 2228c toner cartridge has a maximum page yield of 19,000 prints while the color toners last up to 10,000 prints each. These yields should reduce maintenance expense by reducing the cost per page. When replacements are needed, remanufactured or compatible Ricoh 2228c toner is also available, which will reduce costs even more.

To preserve the amount of printer toner used per print, this unit has a mode that uses the minimum amount of Aficio 2228c toner. Still a maximum resolution of 1200x600 dpi can be reached using only the black or color Ricoh 2228c toner. This quality will fit well in a work environment. Up to 28 pages per minute can be produced in black-and-white and 20 pages per minute in color.

The copier can produce up to 999 duplicates from one document. The scanner has a scan-to-email functions and the fax machine has a transmission speed of 33.6 kbps. This multi-functioning unit is connected via USB 2.0 port, ethernet or an optional wireless interface. Overall, the 2228c is a rock solid all-in-one laser printer that will benefit different sizes of offices.
