Manual of product SG K3100DN
Editorial note
The Ricoh SG K3100DN printer stands out for its solid performance, offering a printing speed of 29 pages per minute and a monthly handling capacity of 10,000 pages. These features make it an ideal choice for heavy users, especially in demanding work environments. Additionally, the built-in duplex printing function helps optimize resources by reducing paper consumption. However, this device has some limitations. The lack of Wi-Fi connectivity may restrict usage flexibility, requiring cabling for network connection. Furthermore, the maximum output capacity of 100 sheets may prove insufficient for users with very high printing volumes. The internal memory of 128 MB could also be seen as limited for complex tasks, which may lead to slowdowns. In terms of design, although the printer has a modern appearance, its weight of 10.5 kg can pose challenges when moving it, especially in tight workspaces. In terms of value for money, the Ricoh SG K3100DN is an interesting option, supported by its ENERGY STAR certifications that attest to its energy efficiency. However, it is important to consider the specific needs of the user before making a final choice.Score details
