Ive had no luck with them and I hate them with a passion (almost as much as the AF3224) - every single one of these ive seen has had fusing issues, jamming issues and the toner/drum assy never seems to last before the toner runs out....the drum fails before running out of toner so the client wants a free toner replacement. The fuser has a plastic bracket that ALWAYS breaks when the client gets a jam - cant buy the bracket gotta get the whole fuser, and its not cheap. Weird scanning issues coming out blue which was eventually a firmware fix, the interface is user un-friendly, to get into service mode takes a lot of patience and even to do something simple like firmware is aprocess in itself!.....in my experience they are just a horrible nasty little machine with lotsa werid faults and Im pretty sure they are made by a third party, not even Ricoh. And they are a PIG to take apart on site!
But id definately take one if it was handed to me for free.
