Ricoh Lanier LD117 Toner Cartridges (Compatible)

Lanier LD117

The Lanier LD117 is a 15 ppm black-and-white digital system for shared office use, mapped to Ricoh 117-class engine hardware. It takes a single toner, the 841718 black cartridge, rated at roughly 7,000 pages. No color set and no second supply item to track - one cartridge keeps the machine running.

The LD117 shows its Ricoh roots in the best way: service knowledge and supplies transfer directly from the equivalent Aficio models, so offices are never locked into a Lanier-only supply chain. This generation of workgroup systems built its reputation on no-drama reliability, and the LD117 is a typical member - a shared machine that a small office loads with everyday copying and printing and largely forgets about between toner changes.

Which cartridge should you buy?

With one cartridge in play, the buying decision comes down to how your office consumes it. Roughly 7,000 pages per cartridge means a moderately busy shared machine might need a change every month or two. Singles keep the cash outlay low for light users. Most shared offices settle on 2-packs or 4-packs: the reserve cartridge is already in the building when the warning shows, and the cost per cartridge is better. Because the same 841718 also feeds the other models in the family below, a multipack is rarely a gamble - if the LD117 is retired, the stock still fits its platform-mates.

Chip, toner and everyday use

Each 841718 here carries a working chip, so the LD117 reports toner status correctly after a change. To fit one, open the front cover, draw the spent cartridge out by its handle, and push the fresh unit home until it stops. A few gentle side-to-side rocks before fitting help the toner settle evenly after time in the box. Remember that rated yields are measured at about 5 percent coverage; a month of dense reports will empty a cartridge faster than a month of memos. Keep spares sealed in a cool, dry cupboard - not on top of the machine, where heat builds up.
