Savin 2560

The badge on the door said Savin, but the engineering was Ricoh's proven departmental platform. The Savin 2560 is the 60-page-per-minute-class black-and-white multifunction Savin dealers placed in offices that print all day, and the cartridge is pure Ricoh: the Type 6110D black toner, 885400, rated up to 43,000 pages of sharp, consistent output.

Savin's proposition was support as much as hardware — accounts that wanted this engine with a Savin service relationship behind it. Daily life with the machine is straightforward either way: one big cartridge, a long interval between swaps, and a supply shared with the Ricoh, Lanier and Gestetner versions of the same platform, which keeps ordering simple for whoever inherited the toner cupboard.

Which cartridge should you buy?

The honest answer depends on how painful an empty machine is in your office. With up to 43,000 pages per cartridge, the single Type 6110D suits a 2560 whose volume is steady and whose users can tolerate a short wait for a reorder. All-day departments are less forgiving of pauses, and for them the 2 pack turns a potential stoppage into a two-minute swap — the spare is already in the building. If your 2560 keeps company with other machines from the same family, the 4 pack consolidates everything: one stock line, one order, and cartridges that fit whichever machine calls for one first.

Chip, toner and everyday use

Fit the compatible cartridge and its chip registers with the machine, so the panel's toner gauge keeps working as expected. The headline yield assumes roughly 5% page coverage — a reasonable basis for mixed office documents, though heavy reports will trim it. When the last of a cartridge starts printing light, rocking it gently side to side redistributes the toner bed and commonly restores clean output until the replacement goes in. Keep spares in their sealed bags, stored flat in a cool cupboard, and changeovers stay uneventful.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which toner does the Savin 2560 use?

The Ricoh Type 6110D black toner cartridge, part 885400. Despite the Savin badge on the machine, there is no Savin-specific cartridge — the supply is the Ricoh family standard.

Is 43,000 pages a realistic expectation?

It is the rated yield at standard coverage. Offices printing typical document mixes often land near it; coverage-dense work lands lower, which the machine's toner gauge will show you as you go.

Can I stock one cartridge type for a mixed Ricoh and Savin fleet?

Yes — that is one of this family's strengths. The 2560 and its Ricoh, Lanier and Gestetner siblings all take the Type 6110D, so a single shelf line covers the fleet.
