    You should also be able to use the one for the 52s and 53s, D120 3503.

    What is the problem that you need to replace one? Usually you can just replace the individual parts.

        Sounds like the Mylar sheets that push the toner to the exit have come loose. I don't know if they are still available. I had to go back to the Aficio 250 parts catalog to find their number, G020 3325 Sheet - Agitator. You may have to replace the D1203562 COVER:TONER BOTTLE:CTYPE:SUB-ASS'Y

          Didn't Ricoh issue a bulletin about removing the individual parts for the hopper from the parts catalogue due to continuing issues with toner dumping?

          Also, there must have been additional updates to the hopper as the last ones I ordered arrived with part number D1203505.

          I have successfully used the hopper for this series in machines going back to at least the 2027.

            if this is your problem, you can order the following parts, usually when you pull down the handle, and you see the puff, just replace the "slider" and the "chuck", if you have unglued the mylars, you can eventually recover the material from some old ADF guide, and by cutting out, you can cut out the unglued lugs that says slimslob, then you screw them to the support with very small self-tapping screws, it works great, I've done it a lot of times

              We have always changed the parts indicated by Luca and solved it. It is true that it seems that there is no stock of some parts.
