    If you're asking what I think you're asking, stick to OEM parts and toner and do the PM's on life every time. If you don't, this machine will soon turn into a total horror show, complete with customers murdered techs.
    It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

    Hit it.

      Current model is the MP 9002SP. MP 9000 would be two models behind.

      Drum life for these models is 1.2 Million. Developer life is 300,000.

        These machines will run for millions of pages, if they are treated right ! If you don't unde3rstand the toner system and process control, and don't put parts in when needed, TonerMunkeh is right! I can push the pm cycle beyond, but I know my machines very well, and when their in need of parts. Get a manual and read it so you know how this machine works first( Paul's the guy). slimslob is right, it's 2 generations back, but if your buying used around 3 million or less you should be ok.

            I agree with Slimbob and toner munkey. Ricoh mp 6000's and up are bulletproof IF you do the PM's on cycle. Yes, you can push certain parts if you have to, but doing the PM's when you're supposed to and doing a COMPLETE pm will get you three to five million copis easy.
