The four color toner cartridges install easily into the top of the machine and the imaging units are preinstalled on a new printer. The Ricoh CL4000 color laser printer is a business class printer that is easy to install and use. The installation utility instructions are simple and you will have your printer up in no time. The toners are applied using a system from Ricoh that lowers first out times and speeds the printing process. Cartridges slide easily into the top access panel of the machine.
Black and white and full color documents print at 26 pages per minute, but your results may vary based on the complexity of the print job. Larger documents take a little longer with the CL 5000 printers. Text is crisp and easily legible at 4 point sizes; the graphics, not quite as good as text, printed well enough for most uses in business but can deliver good quality photo prints for a brochure or flyer. The first page is out in less than 10 seconds for monochrome prints and 15 seconds for color documents, if you are starting from cold then it will take a little longer.
A hard drive, optional on the Ricoh CL 5000DN model, provides added efficiency and security for printing sensitive documents. Print monitoring software will help you track all printing such as color usage, group use, print job accounting and toner level alerts. Compatible with Mac, Sun, PC, and UNIX and a 150,000 page monthly duty cycle makes the Ricoh CL 5000 series a smart investment. |
