Aficio SP 3600DN

Built for the networked small office that keeps an eye on running costs, the Ricoh Aficio SP 3600DN is a monochrome laser printer with duplex printing fitted as standard, so two-sided jobs save paper without anyone changing a setting. Everything it prints comes from one supply: the 407319 black toner cartridge, rated for up to 6,000 pages. This page stocks that cartridge as a compatible replacement in single units and in multipacks, so you can match the order to the way your office actually prints.

A printer like this usually sits at the center of a small team: invoices, shipping labels, letters and reports all land on the same tray. Because the SP 3600DN is shared over the network, it tends to print steadily all day rather than in bursts, and that steady pattern is exactly what a 6,000-page cartridge suits. When one toner type covers the machine, whoever orders supplies has a simple job, and a spare on the shelf means a low-toner warning never turns into a stopped office.

Which cartridge should you buy?

There is only one cartridge decision on this page, and it is about how many to keep on hand. A single 407319 covers up to 6,000 pages, which is months of output for a desk-side user but can disappear quickly on a shared machine. The 2-pack puts 12,000 pages in the cupboard and suits most small offices: one cartridge in the printer, one waiting. The 4-pack stretches that to roughly 24,000 pages and makes sense where the printer runs daily and reordering is a chore someone always forgets. Buying ahead also softens the cost per page compared with ordering singles one at a time. If your SP 3600DN shares a supply shelf with a sibling model from the family list below, multipacks are even easier to justify, because the same box restocks either machine.

Chip, toner and everyday use

Each compatible cartridge on this page carries a working chip, so the SP 3600DN recognizes it on installation and reports toner levels as usual. Before fitting a new cartridge, take it out of its packaging and rock it gently from side to side a few times; that loosens the toner powder and spreads it evenly along the roller. Page counts are measured at about 5 percent coverage, so a cartridge printing dense contracts or bold graphics will finish sooner than one printing plain letters. Keep spares sealed, stored flat in a cool, dry spot away from direct sunlight, and they will be ready whenever the low-toner message appears.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which toner cartridge does the Aficio SP 3600DN use?

It takes the 407319 black cartridge, the only supply this monochrome printer needs. Every listing above is that cartridge in a different pack size, each rated for up to 6,000 pages.

Is two-sided printing really standard on this model?

Yes. Duplex printing is built into the SP 3600DN rather than sold as an add-on, which trims paper use on reports and drafts. It has no effect on toner fitting; the same 407319 cartridge serves either way.

Will this cartridge also fit the SP 3600SF in our other office?

It will. The 407319 is shared across the SP 3600, SP 3610 and SP 4510 families and the MP 401SPF, so one stock of cartridges can cover several different machines.

Are these genuine Ricoh cartridges?

No, they are compatible replacements built for this printer, each with a working chip. They are covered by a 1-year warranty and 1-year returns, so a cartridge that misbehaves can be sent back.
