Manual of product SP 201N
Editorial note
The Ricoh SP 201N printer stands out for several notable advantages. It offers integrated duplex printing, thus saving paper and reducing environmental impact. With a maximum resolution of 600 x 1200 DPI, it ensures prints of exceptional clarity, particularly suited to professional needs. Additionally, its reduced energy consumption in sleep mode and economy mode contributes to significant savings over the long term. The modern design, with a black and white finish, easily fits into various office environments. However, some drawbacks must be taken into account. The printing speed of 2 pages per minute may prove insufficient for users with high printing needs, especially in demanding work environments. The lack of Wi-Fi connectivity also limits usage flexibility, forcing users to connect only via Ethernet or USB cables. Furthermore, the internal memory of 32 MB may restrict performance when printing more complex documents, while the maximum output capacity of 50 sheets requires frequent interventions to empty the tray. In terms of performance, the user experience is generally positive, although the limitation to black printing may disappoint some. The value for money is satisfactory for those looking for a simple device, but the friction points related to speed and connectivity could deter more demanding users. Overall, the Ricoh SP 201N is a wise choice for users seeking a reliable printer for basic printing tasks, while being aware of its limitations.Score details
