Ricoh C4500 Printer Review

The Ricoh Aficio C4500 color laser printer is designed for the large office environment. It has the full array of multifunction capabilities, and numerous expansion options to meet virtually any need. Users looking for personal printers should consider a model that uses Konica-Minolta 1710587-004 toner.

The Ricoh C4500 color laser printer is focused on the high-volume needs of an enterprise-level office. It not only has a large paper capacity, at 1,100 sheets, but it can be expanded to a maximum of 3,100 sheets for the largest offices.

The machine is not only an impressive printer, but also has the ability to copy, scan, and fax. It has a 100-sheet automatic document feeder for quickly scanning multiple pages, and scans and faxes can be sent to a variety of locations, including email, FTP, and network folders. The unit also has many security features, which are especially important in environments with sensitive documents.

In addition to the base model, the C4500, there are two additional configurations, the C4500EFI and the C4500SPF, which includes upgraded processors, memory, and paper capacity, as well as upgraded finishing options. Speaking of finishing options, the unit supports a wide array of finishing options as upgrades, including stapling, sorting, collating, and others.

Ricoh C4500 toner cartridges have a capacity of 17,000 pages for each color laser toner cartridge, and 23,000 pages for each black printer toner cartridge. Aficia C4500 toner cartridges are very affordable, and their large capacity gives users a low cost per page, which is more cost effecient than the Dell 330-1204 toner.

Print speeds are some of the fastest available, a 40 pages per minute for color prints and 45 pages per minute for black. Print quality is extremely sharp, especially text. Graphics and photo prints are very balanced, with even, accurate colors.

Overall, the Ricoh Aficio C4500 is an impressive machine for high-volume office environments that need the best quality prints and the fastest speeds. For low-volume users consider the Lexmark C522, which features Lexmark C5240KH toner. Its economical toner costs are a nice bonus.
