Also fits: this black print cartridge (8,000 pages) fits the Ricoh Aficio MP 301SP and MP 301SPF; the same cartridge in Ricoh's own manufacturer feed is EDP 841767. The same machines were also sold under the Savin and Lanier brands under the same MP 301SP / MP 301SPF model names.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does one cartridge actually last in a small office running an MP 301SP?

It is rated for 8,000 pages at the standard 5% coverage test. On a compact MFP like this one, real life usually means a mix of emails, invoices and scanned-then-printed forms, so think in months rather than pages: at 300 pages a month you are looking at well over two years, at 1,000 pages a month roughly eight months, and a busy desk printing 2,000 pages a month will finish one in about four months. Dense pages with logos and shading pull the number down; plain text stretches it further.

What does a page from this cartridge really cost me?

At $37.49 for 8,000 rated pages, the toner works out to about 0.47 cents per page. That is the toner-only math — paper and electricity are on top — but it is a useful yardstick: a 500-page ream of mixed office documents costs roughly $2.35 in toner. For a machine in this class, that is a modest running cost, especially next to replacing the printer itself because a cartridge got hard to find.

Will this cartridge work in my machine?

Yes — this is the compatible replacement for the Ricoh 841714 cartridge used in the Ricoh MP 301SP. If your printer's supply screen or the label on the cartridge coming out shows 841714, this is the correct match. Installation is the same swap you already know: open the front cover, slide the old unit out, slide this one in until it seats, and close up.

The printer says toner is low but pages still look fine — should I swap now?

Not necessarily. The low warning is an estimate, and there is usually usable toner left after it appears. A gentle rock of the cartridge side to side can redistribute the remaining powder and buy more clean pages. Keep printing while output stays dark and even; replace when text turns noticeably faint or streaky, because pushing a truly empty cartridge only adds wear and frustration.

What protection do I have if this cartridge lets me down?

It is covered by a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns — if a cartridge fails early, leaks or produces poor output, you are not stuck with it. Full terms are on our shipping & returns page. A single bad cartridge is handled on its own; you do not need to send back anything else you ordered.

How fast will my order get here, and who can I call with a question?

Orders ship from whichever of our four warehouses — Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia or California — is closest to you, which keeps transit times short. If anything about the cartridge or the order needs a human, our support team answers Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.
