Frequently Asked Questions

Who actually goes through 120,000 pages of black toner?

Busier places than you might think. A department running an MP 3500 at 5,000 pages a month works through this 4-pack in about two years, and offices with two or three of these machines on the floor can split the pack across all of them. School offices, warehouses, medical front desks and municipal counters — anywhere a black-and-white Ricoh hums all day — are the natural home for a pack this size. If your machine prints a few hundred pages a month, be honest with yourself: four cartridges is more than you need, and the single or 2-pack is the smarter buy.

How does the 4-pack price break down?

Four single cartridges bought one at a time would total $183.04. The 4-pack is $127.55, a saving of $55.49, and the per-cartridge price falls to $31.89 — the lowest unit price in this cartridge family. Across the pack's 120,000 pages that works out to roughly 0.11¢ per page, against about 0.15¢ per page buying singles.

Which machines does this pack supply?

All four cartridges are the 884922 black unit for Ricoh Aficio MP 3500. The MP 3500 is a black-and-white machine with a single cartridge slot, so the pack is four identical units to use in sequence in one machine, or to divide among several machines in the same office. Check the 884922 code on the supply label inside the front door of each machine you plan to feed from the pack.

How should I store and rotate four cartridges?

Keep them sealed, flat, and in a cool spot away from sunlight and radiators, and work through them oldest first — a simple first-in, first-out habit. Marking the purchase date on each box with a pen makes rotation effortless for whoever manages the supply shelf. Stored that way, sealed cartridges stay ready for a long time, so a 4-pack bought today is not racing any expiry while it waits its turn.

Does buying in bulk change my warranty or return rights?

Not at all. Every cartridge in the pack carries the same 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns as a single purchase, and each unit is covered individually — if one cartridge leaks, streaks or falls well short of its 30,000 pages, that cartridge alone is replaced or refunded at no return cost to you. The complete terms are set out on our shipping & returns page.

How is an order this size delivered?

The full pack ships from whichever of our warehouses — Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia or California — is nearest to you, so even a four-cartridge order typically reaches you within a few business days. If you are stocking a supply room for several machines, ordering before the last shelf cartridge goes into service keeps the rotation unbroken. Questions about a bulk order are welcome Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.
