Savin 2513
Savin's take on Ricoh's proven black-and-white copier platform, the Savin 2513 is the badge-engineered counterpart of the Aficio 1013 — and it runs the same cartridge: the 885257 black toner, the Type 1150D, at up to 7,000 pages per cartridge. Rebrand or not, the toner math is identical: one black cartridge, thousands of pages, and nothing else to buy.
The 2513's charm is the absence of complications. There are no color supplies to budget for and no second cartridge type to keep in stock, so a small office can hand reordering to anyone — there is exactly one item on the list, and it lasts for thousands of pages at a time. Predictable supplies for a machine that simply gets on with copying.

Which cartridge should you buy?
With one cartridge type and one yield figure, the only question is how far ahead you like to buy. A single 885257 already covers up to 7,000 pages, which keeps a low-volume office supplied for a long stretch with nothing sitting in storage. The 2-pack is the low-effort upgrade — the second cartridge waits its turn, so the swap happens the same day the first one fades rather than after a delivery window. Offices copying all day, or running several machines from this platform family, usually settle on the 4-pack and reorder a few times a year at most. The cartridge is the same whichever box you open.
Chip, toner and everyday use
Everyday care for the 2513's cartridge is mostly about timing and storage. The yield figure assumes roughly 5% page coverage, so if your copying runs to dense forms and dark graphics, expect a shorter life than the headline number. When copies start to wash out, rock the cartridge gently end to end before condemning it — settled toner redistributes and often restores even blacks for a while. Keep the next cartridge sealed in its packaging, stored flat in a cool spot out of sunlight. The compatible cartridges here are made to the original's fit, so changing one needs no tools and no machine adjustments.
