Ricoh toner and ink cartridges are known for exceptional printing performance. These cartridges are engineered to the same exacting standards as Ricoh printers, and they produce consistent coverage on every printed page. At Staples, you can find a variety of Ricoh toner cartridges, ink cartridges and refills compatible with Ricoh printers. It’s recommended to only use Ricoh toner and ink in a Ricoh printer for best results. Straying from the brand can lead to poor printing outcomes or damage to the printer. To learn whether your Ricoh printer uses ink or toner, refer to your printer model and purchase the recommended cartridge.
Ricoh is an environmentally conscious brand, making it the preferred toner cartridge provider of many people. Ricoh cartridges offer a steady flow and water-resistant results, and the toner dries instantly, so you never have to worry about smudges. The high performance and quick-drying nature of toner versus ink makes it appealing to those who print photographs or marketing materials in high volumes. Ricoh toner is made with a resin-wax blend that provides an above-average page coverage and color reproduction. Printing results are bold, crisp and vibrant. High-yield Ricoh toner cartridges are long-lasting, printing up to 6,400 pages before running dry.
Biomass is organic matter that can be used to create products in a more environmentally sound manner. Biomass is used as a raw material for the primary ingredient found in Ricoh toners, resin. Ricoh’s biomass toner technology decreases the environmental impact of toner usage, reducing CO2 emissions and petroleum depletion associated with traditional toner. For those who print in high volumes or want to be mindful of their environmental footprint, Ricoh toner cartridges are a quality option.
While toner is designed for laser printers, Ricoh ink is used for Ricoh inkjet printers. Ricoh’s ink cartridges consist of low-viscosity ink, which reduces drying and overall printing time. Low-viscosity ink is essentially a liquid gel. It’s thicker than standard ink and able to dry instantly upon contact with paper — that means no smudging or bleeding. Ricoh printer ink cartridges deliver high-quality, crisp, vibrant text and images, with color images appearing virtually photo-like. Ricoh ink is also highly economical thanks to how long-lasting it is. Standard-yield color ink cartridges can print up to 2,200 pages before running dry, and standard-yield black ink cartridges can print up to 2,500.
Furthering their push to be environmentally friendly, Ricoh encourages recycling empty toner and ink cartridges. While local recycling resources are the most sustainable, if no local recycling options are available, you can conveniently return empty cartridges through Ricoh’s toner bottle and ink cartridge return program. Make sure to check which Ricoh products are covered under this program, as it does vary from state to state, but it is possible to recycle Ricoh toner bottles, ink cartridges, printers, scanners and more. The program is free of charge and simple to use, and you can even return your toner or ink cartridge using its own carton box to further support green initiatives.
