Manual of product Aficio SP C831DN
Editorial note
The Ricoh Aficio SP C831DN stands out for its impressive performance, offering a fast printing speed of 55 pages per minute, both in black and color. This feature makes it an ideal choice for professional environments requiring high productivity. Additionally, its maximum resolution of 1200 x 1200 DPI ensures prints of exceptional clarity, perfect for documents requiring precise rendering. The maximum input capacity of 4400 sheets allows for handling large printing volumes without frequent interruptions. However, several drawbacks deserve mention. The printer's high weight of 97 kg can complicate its installation and mobility, often requiring assistance. The power consumption in printing mode is relatively high (1584 W), which could lead to increased operating costs over the long term. Furthermore, although the printer offers a manual duplex printing function, this may slow down the printing process for those who need it frequently. Regarding the user interface, while it is touch-sensitive and modern, it may not be intuitive for all users, requiring some learning time. Finally, the lack of built-in Wi-Fi connectivity limits its flexibility of use in modern work environments, where wireless connection is often preferred. Overall, the Ricoh Aficio SP C831DN positions itself as an excellent choice for users seeking a high-performing and reliable printer, but it is important to consider its limitations in terms of weight, energy consumption, and connectivity.Score details
