Just posted a deal for a white toner in freebies section.

B&W Laser printer....... How much is the white toner please?

very tempted but the lack of wireless puts me off
heat added

I use this for my small business, it's absolutely fantastic and saved me loads due to freeing up the colour HP inkjet printer. I have the wireless model and its not easy to set-up.
thumbs up

Got the wireless version Rioch SP213 about 6 months ago. still not used up the toner included. Our old Kodak printer/Scanner was terrible for inks as even if we never used it the chip on the cartridge would render it as spent and unusable after about a month. Spent so much replacing the inks and only getting a few prints off per cartridge as we were low use users.

201n user here, a bit of feedback.

This may not apply to this model but connection via Ethernet was a bit tricky to set up.

This will apply. Initial toner is only 1,000 pages, when I bought mine 2 years ago, replacement toner cost £70 so I used a refill. 30 minutes to do, cost £16 and really easy. My ink is now running out again so I just bought some new ink, £19.99 Ebay. I haven't fitted it yet but it's a 2 minute job.

I'm really happy with my purchase. 2 years printing for £40 and I expect at least another year from this cartridge. If I factor in my daughters Epson + refills, this is much more economical plus there's no head cleaning, incompatible cartridges ect. The only disadvantage is B&W but that suits me fine.

Also if the ink has dropped from £70 to £20 then I'd expect further reductions in future or bigger capacity for the same price.. These printers must fly off the shelves and have a massive userbase.

One tip, if your ink is running out, take the cartridge out and give it a shake. I've had another 50 pages or so and it's still running, hence why I have'nt put the new cartridge in yet.

Tequila has it spot on ^^

media costs more than the unit...cold

Yes I have used them a couple of times, plenty of youtube videos and a couple specific to this range of printers, It's much easier then it looks, just take your time.

I bought the wifi version from Box but via tesco direct, it was £29.99

It is brilliant at what it does, connected effortlessly (via the ricoh app iir), and with the app I have printed from android phone, iphone and ipad, I use linux on my PC and there is no problem.

Just ordered some toner from a sponsored link on amazon which should be arriving today, that was £20.80 for 2 cartridges, free delivery
Sold by Esprit Cartridges

Will let you know how good they are.

Just checked, the page yield per cartridge says 9600!!! or perhaps that's for the 2?

maybe i just got a clunky one.nightmare to install,wireless connectivity a little flakey and last week it has developed a fault where it powers itself off.

anyone used the refill kit successfully ?

doesnt work on OSX, i have one and have to use Parallels or bootcamp for it to work.

Great printer though, it mines well over a year and still on the starter toner.

Does anyone know how this compares to the Brother HL-2130?

I know that is an older and more expensive printer, I just wonder how it compares because I'm looking for something similar for a relative but the 2130 isn't really available now due to its age unless you want to buy secondhand or pay over the odds.

What I like most about the Brother printer is that I can buy comptible toners for around £7 so printing is very cheap.

You laughing about the sarcastic laugh about the bad joke really made me chuckle!

great deal but personally I have to skip it as wireless function is essential for me.

Good printer and can definitely recommend. I've got the wireless version, bought for £16 last year.

Available from Box on Tesco Direct for £24.99 Link

B&W Laser printer....... How much is the white toner please?

I have one of these, had it for about two years now and the toner is still going (albeit infrequent printing).

It's a total pain to get set up but once it's going it does the job first time every time - I've never been able to say that about a printer before!

​haha..your sarcastic laugh literally made me LOL. :laughing:

I buy this compatible toner from amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Doitwiser-Compatible-Cartridge-Replacement-SP204SN/dp/B00V6J28G8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1486126675&sr=8-1&keywords=sp213w costs £23.50 with free delivery and has recieved very positive reviews it's also the high capacity one so can do up to 2600 pages. Not had any problems with them.

same.
brilliant printer, tricky to set up the wifi version.
The best bit is, no blocked inkjet heads, which is the downfall of many inkjets which are only used occasionally

No longer at this price... 26.99 now.

does this printer have an Ethernet socket?

They should make big thermal printers

I have :
compatible =Only £26.08 each (£31.30 inc VAT)
genuine =Only £43.17 each (£51.81 inc VAT)
High capacity=Only £62.96 each (£75.55 inc VAT)

just average prices from one of the suppliers.

i have one of these and feeling super frustrated that it doesn't work with mac.. Has anyone found a way to print from mac onto the Ricoh 2xx series ?

I had my one for a few weeks and done a few pages of printing. I now get red lights and it refuses to print. I may be just unlucky. I got it be a few months ago from something like Groupon for 15quid

Check out the cost of the toners for this.

Same.

thanks for the posts for people who already have this and any info for toner. just gone and bought another one for my father!

Brilliant printer simple to use cracking deal and I got one last time it was this cheap

Heat, been look out for a cheap laser print and this will do the job. anyone plugged one into a pi to make it wireless printing?

I have one of these, it's excellent. Replacement compatible toner is £31/2600 pages so about 1.2p per sheet. It looks fine.

The initial cartridge is 800 pages so about 3p per sheet.

It also has an inksave mode which causes it to print half darkness, so you get twice as many pages

brought 1 last week from these guys for £30 . I think it was £5 for delivery. good printer, good customer service also. highly recommend this buyer and the printer at this price.

Iv`e got SP204 SFN which has been a reliable work horse. Heat added!
