    Ricoh letter size (A4) MFP

    Hello there!
    We do not have much experience with Ricoh MFP's letter size (A4's).
    We have a customer who wants to buy 9 pieces.
    Is c305 a good one?
    Or others?
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    Personally don't like the MPC305. Very poor toner density and poor print quality. Also never made yield on toners and PCDU's. If newer devices are not an option I'd rather go for the MPC300 which is the same age as the 305 but a much nicer machine

    The IM350 is a nice little box, just need to beat it into the customer how to fit the toner correctly or they will damage the LED head or the toner cartridge detection fingers.
    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.

    So the what is now discontinued MP C305?

    I guess cost is an issue, not a bad model had a few issues when new these were new but addressed with firmware & various modifications. Solid colours not great but fine for general office stuff. I still have 100’s I look after no real problems PCU life very good.

    However if your budget allows go for the MP C401 a much better model slightly larger but still A4.

    What are your findings about Ricoh mpc306?
    Is it an "ok machine"?
    Thanks for your answer...

    The only gripe I have with the MPC305/306/307 is when you need to replace the toner supply coils - pain in the rear-end.

    Other than that, I really like them.
