Aficio SP377DNwX
Most office printers still live wherever the network cable happens to end. The Ricoh Aficio SP377DNwX ignores that constraint: it connects over Wi-Fi and prints double-sided automatically, so this mono laser can sit anywhere with a power outlet and a reason to print. Keeping it supplied is simple — it runs on the 408161 black toner cartridge, rated for up to 6,400 pages of sharp everyday documents. Singles and multipacks of the compatible 408161 are listed on this page.
That placement freedom suits the corners of the office that wired printers never reach: a reception counter, a satellite desk shared by two or three people, a back office that grew faster than its cabling. Because output is monochrome and the cartridge yield is generous for its class, the SP377DNwX asks little of the people around it — no color supplies to track, no cable runs to plan, just paper and the occasional cartridge.

Which cartridge should you buy?
Start from how the printer is used rather than from pack size. A single 408161 gives one or two users up to 6,400 pages, which at typical desk-printer volumes can last many months, so a single cartridge is the sensible default for a lightly used machine. The 2-pack fits a shared desk that prints steadily through the week: one cartridge installed, one waiting, and no pause while a replacement ships. The 4-pack is the choice for offices running several 377-series machines or handling the printer's supplies centrally — buying four at once lowers the cost per cartridge and removes toner from the monthly ordering list. There is a single yield rating for this model, so the decision is purely about quantity on hand.
Chip, toner and everyday use
Swapping the cartridge on a wireless printer is no different from a wired one: open the front cover, slide the old unit out, and push the replacement in until it seats. The chip on each compatible 408161 registers with the printer so the supply status you check from your computer reflects the new cartridge. Page counts are quoted at about 5% coverage, standard for letters and reports. Store unopened cartridges away from heat and humidity, and if a print starts to look faint, a gentle side-to-side rock of the cartridge can even out the toner for the pages that remain.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which toner does the Aficio SP377DNwX take?
It uses the 408161 black cartridge, which you may also see marked SP 377XA. Any of the listings above — single, 2-pack or 4-pack — is that same cartridge.
Does the 408161 fit the multifunction version of this printer?
Yes. The Aficio SP377SFNwX uses the identical cartridge, so one spare covers both machines if your office runs the pair.
How long does one cartridge last in a small office?
At up to 6,400 pages, a two-person desk printing a few dozen pages a day can go the better part of a year on a single cartridge. Heavier use shortens that in direct proportion.
Are these cartridges guaranteed?
Yes. Every compatible cartridge on this page is covered by a 1-year warranty with 1-year returns, and each carries a working chip for correct toner-level reporting.
