Ricoh Savin 920 Toner Cartridges (Compatible)

Savin 920

The Savin 920 is the step up within the Savin group: 20 ppm-class output for offices that need more speed, delivered on the same toner platform as its smaller siblings. It prints and copies in black only, using the 841718 cartridge at about 7,000 pages per change. Faster engine, familiar cartridge - that combination is the whole point of the model.

The 920 was aimed at workgroups that had outgrown the 15 ppm models but had no reason to change cartridge platforms or budgets. A team that already stocks toner for the smaller Savin machines can add a 920 without adding a second cartridge to the supply shelf. It closed the gap for customers whose volumes grew faster than their headcount: more pages per minute, the same 7,000-page cartridge keeping operating costs predictable.

Which cartridge should you buy?

Because the 920 uses the same 841718 cartridge as the rest of the family, upgrading machines does not strand your toner stock - cartridges on the shelf carry straight over. For a 20 ppm workgroup machine, pages move faster, so a 2-pack or 4-pack is usually the practical choice: the cartridge still lasts about 7,000 pages, but a busy group reaches the end of it sooner. Singles suit a 920 that handles overflow work rather than the main load. There is no high-yield variant and no color option to weigh; the only variable is how many cartridges you want in reserve when the current one runs down.

Chip, toner and everyday use

A working chip is built into every 841718 on this page, and the 920 reads it for toner-level reporting like the original. Change the cartridge with the front cover open; the old unit slides out and the replacement slides in on the same rails. If the first pages after a change look streaky, take the cartridge out and tilt it side to side several times - the toner settles during shipping. Yield figures are quoted at roughly 5 percent coverage, the industry standard, so long dense documents count more heavily against the cartridge than short letters do. Keep one sealed spare near the machine; at 20 ppm, a group can finish a cartridge in the middle of a deadline run.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which toner does the Savin 920 use?

The black 841718 cartridge (Type 1170D), rated for about 7,000 pages - the same cartridge used across this Savin generation.

We are upgrading from a Savin 816 or 917. Can we keep our spare cartridges?

Yes. The 920 runs on the same toner platform, so 841718 cartridges bought for the smaller models fit the 920 as well. Nothing on the supply shelf goes to waste.

Is the 920 a color printer?

No, it is a black-and-white system. There are no color cartridges for this model - just the single black 841718.

Single cartridge or multipack for a workgroup?

For a shared 20 ppm machine, a 2-pack or 4-pack is the safer routine: one cartridge in the machine, at least one in reserve. Singles are fine for light or backup duty.
