DSC545
The Gestetner DSc545 sits just above its DSc535 sibling in the rebadged Ricoh color-multifunction lineup, sharing the same 841342 toner family and the full print-copy-scan-fax feature set. Offices that standardized on the Gestetner name get proven Ricoh engineering behind a familiar badge. A single toner family keeps supplies simple across both models: two badges, one toner shelf, zero confusion at reorder time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which toner does the Gestetner DSC545 use?

Are the cartridges on this page original or compatible?
The cartridges on this page are compatible replacements for the Type MP C4500A family (OEM references 841342–841345), built to match the originals' fit and page yield.
How many pages does each Type MP C4500A cartridge print?
The black cartridge prints approximately 23,000 pages; each color cartridge (cyan, magenta, yellow) prints approximately 17,000 pages, all at 5% page coverage — the ISO standard measurement for toner yield.
What is the difference between single cartridges and the color sets?
Single cartridges let you replace only the color that ran out. The 4-color sets bundle one cartridge of each color at a lower price than buying them separately — ideal when several colors need replacing at once.

The Type MP C4500A cartridge family is shared across the Gestetner DSC545 and DSC535, the Ricoh Aficio MP C3500/C3500SPF/C4500/C4500SPF, the Lanier LD435C and LD445C, and the Savin C3535 and C4540.
