Aficio MP C400SR
The Ricoh Aficio MP C400SR pairs the MP C400's compact color engine with the SR workgroup configuration, for offices that want finishing options inside a small footprint. Its toner set is the family standard — black 841295, cyan 841296, magenta 841297, yellow 841298 — one cartridge per color, rated up to 8,300 pages in black and 10,000 in each color.
Finishing work changes how a machine drinks toner: assembled documents, covers and sets tend to arrive as projects, and projects print in bursts. The MP C400SR's corner of the office therefore sees feast-or-famine demand — quiet days, then a run that empties a color by Friday. The pack sizes on this page, from singles to 8-piece sets, let the supply shelf absorb those bursts without an emergency order every time a project lands.

Which cartridge should you buy?
Burst-driven printing argues for depth on the shelf. Keep a 4-piece set as the baseline reserve — one of every color, ready for whatever a project consumes first — and restock black separately in its 2, 3 or 5-packs, since black carries the lowest rating (8,300 pages) and the heaviest everyday load. For a color-led project run, the 5 and 8-piece sets pre-position spares of everything, while the 3 and 6-piece sets cover the colors alone when black is fresh. Singles remain the right answer for a single fading color between projects. Every cartridge is a compatible unit backed by a 1-year warranty, with 1-year returns.
Chip, toner and everyday use
Before a big finishing run, glance at the panel levels: the chip in each cartridge reports what remains, and starting a 200-set document run on a cartridge already flagged low is how deadlines slip. Change a low cartridge before the run, not during it. Ratings — 8,300 pages black, 10,000 colors — are quoted at 5% coverage, and project documents with covers and graphics draw far more per page. Keep reserve cartridges in their sealed packaging, stored flat; a set kept together means whoever preps the next project finds all four colors in one place.
Frequently Asked Questions
What cartridges does the Aficio MP C400SR take?
The family set: black 841295, cyan 841296, magenta 841297 and yellow 841298, each a separate cartridge that can be changed on its own.
How many pages does each cartridge print?
Black is rated up to 8,300 pages; cyan, magenta and yellow are each rated up to 10,000 pages, all at the standard 5% coverage.
Are full sets available, or only singles?
Both — singles and black multipacks sit alongside 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8-piece sets, so a workgroup can hold anything from a single spare color to a full reserve row.
Will these cartridges be recognized by the machine?
Yes — each compatible cartridge carries a chip the MP C400SR reads for level reporting. Seat the cartridge fully in its labeled slot and the panel picks it up.
