Ricoh

Every Ricoh toner cartridge we stock sits somewhere in the three series linked from this page, and together they cover 566 compatible cartridges for Ricoh laser printers and multifunction machines. Ricoh identifies its cartridges by six-digit part numbers rather than by marketing names, so the number printed on the cartridge you pull out of the machine is the number to shop by. A few of the best-known examples are the black cartridge 888308 for the Aficio CL4000DN, 841295 for the MP C300 family, 841813 for the MP C3003, and 406046, the black cartridge sold for the compact SP C220 color printers. Find the series your machine belongs to, open its model page, and the cartridges listed there are the ones built for it.

The Aficio Series is the main Ricoh line on this site: 219 model categories spanning small desktop printers, departmental multifunction machines and color laser models, from the numbered Aficio MFP families through the SP and SP C printer ranges. The MP Series gathers the multifunction models that Ricoh groups under the MP name, while the AC Series is the short, older Aficio Color copier branch built around the AC104 and AC205 machines. Most shoppers will land in the Aficio Series, but starting from the right branch matters, because the same six-digit numbering runs across all three and a cartridge only fits the model families it was made for.

Popular cartridges for Ricoh

The table below samples the range across the series: four-color sets for the color MFP families, individual color cartridges and black cartridges for the smaller SP C printers. Page yields are listed on each product page, since they are not printed in the cartridge names themselves.

Which cartridge should you buy?

Work from the machine outward, not from the cartridge inward. First read the model name on the front of your printer or copier, then open the matching series above — Aficio Series for most models, MP Series for MP-badged multifunction machines, AC Series for the AC104 and AC205 copiers — and pick your exact model from its directory. On the model page, compare the six-digit number on your old cartridge with the numbers listed there; an exact match is the cartridge to order. If your machine is a color model and only one color has run out, a single cartridge in that color is enough; a four-color set makes sense when several colors are low at once or when you want a full spare set on the shelf.

Chip, toner and everyday use

Each compatible cartridge carries a chip that the machine reads to recognize the cartridge and track its toner level, so seat the cartridge firmly until it clicks and let the printer finish its start-up routine before printing. If a toner-low message appears while pages still look solid, removing the cartridge and rocking it gently from side to side redistributes the remaining toner and often restores even coverage for a while longer. Store spare cartridges flat, in their sealed bags, away from heat and direct sunlight, and keep one spare per machine so a cartridge that runs out mid-job never stops the office. Every compatible Ricoh cartridge here is covered by a 1-year warranty and 1-year returns.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know which Ricoh cartridge my printer takes?

Pull the old cartridge out and read the six-digit part number on its label, then find your printer model in the series directories above. The model page lists the cartridges sold for that machine, and the number on your old cartridge should match one of them exactly.

Do all Ricoh printers use the same toner cartridge?

No. Cartridges are shared within model families, not across the whole brand: a black cartridge such as 888308 fits its own CL4000DN family and nothing outside it. That is why each model page lists only the cartridges that belong to that machine.

Does Clever Supplies sell Ricoh ink cartridges?

No — everything on these Ricoh pages is laser toner. The Aficio, MP and AC machines covered here are all toner-based printers and copiers, so there is no ink version of these cartridges to mix up with the toner your machine needs.

My machine is badged Gestetner, Lanier or Savin. Where do I look?

Start with the six-digit part number on the cartridge rather than the badge on the machine, and search the model directories in the series above. The number is the reliable key: match it exactly against the cartridges listed for the closest matching model before ordering.

Ricoh printer series

All Ricoh toner on this site is organized under these three series. Open the series your machine belongs to, then choose its model page for the exact cartridges.
