To get the most out of your documents and data you need a device that enables efficient, simple and secure document management. A device that meets your business needs, from outstanding print output to seamless connectivity. And for that, you can rely on the Ricoh P 501 Black-and-White Printer. With this value device, you can print with outstanding reliability, sustainability and productivity.
Faster Printing Pace
This affordable and compact Ricoh P 501 Printer handles everyday print jobs from the convenience of your desktop. With a print speed of up to 45 pages per minute (ppm) at a high-resolution of up to 1200 dpi, you can share your best ideas clearly and quickly. This printer allows you to add multiple paper trays, without expanding your footprint, to increase paper capacity up to 2,100 sheets.
Robust and Powerful Protection
Start printing quickly with recovery from Sleep Mode in less than 10 seconds. The printer keeps working even when multiple users send multiple jobs with the robust controller and powerful processor. You can check system status at a glance and speed through printer functions using the four-line LCD panel.
Variety of Media Compatibility
Discover better ways to share your best ideas. Leverage LED imaging technology to maintain crisp clarity from the first page to the last. It allows you to print on media up to 8.5 x 14 inches to produce a wide range of jobs in-house. You can use the 100-Sheet Bypass Tray to accommodate special stocks, weights and sizes, including envelopes, labels and more.
Wireless Connectivity
You use your smartphone or tablet to collaborate and share information daily and now you can use it to print as well. Download the RICOH Smart Device Connector app to grab and print information directly from your personal mobile device without utilities or drivers. With the app, a smart device can serve as your own front-end, wireless interface for printing documents, emails, and more on the P 501.
Advanced Security
With the P 501 user authentication capability, you can use Locked Print to hold documents until the owner releases it. When equipped with the optional Hard Disk Drive, the DataOverwriteSecurity System (DOSS) erases latent information left on the hard drive.
Track Your Performance
Capture critical details about users and activity. Use RICOH Device Manager NX Lite to check print settings, collect metered data, track levels, status and more whether the P 501 is used as a standalone device or in a fleet of printers. You can also manage print queues and change settings and configurations easily from the desktop.
Energy-Efficient and Eco-Friendly
Designed to run quietly and efficiently on the desktop, the P 501 Black and White Printer is ENERGY STAR certified and meets EPEAT Gold criteria while achieving Typical Electricity Consumption of 1.8kWh/week. With the Energy Save Mode, you can cut paper usage with default duplex printing and lower electricity costs. Plus, Ricoh's product stewardship and recycling makes it easy to return your used supplies.
Easy Management and Maintenance
At Ricoh, we believe you should spend more time finding your next big idea than figuring out how to fix your printer. That's why we designed the P 501 for long-lasting performance. If there is a misfeed, you can locate it and access it quickly without removing the fusing unit. With Ricoh's Web Image Monitor, you can check system status, change settings and expedite maintenance all from your desktop.
