Why choose the genuine Ricoh IM600 toner cartridge
The 418478 is a genuine Ricoh toner. The powder is matched to the fuser and speed of these printers: sharp text, even solids, proper fusing from the first page, and a cartridge recognized immediately (levels shown, no error message).
IM600 or IM600H: which capacity?
The 418478 (25,000 pages) suits occasional or moderate use. For higher volumes, the 418481 (40,000 pages) costs less per page and is replaced less often; both fit the same printers.
Printers compatible with the 418478
The 418478 is compatible with the following model (manufacturer data):
- IM 600
Check the exact reference of your printer (label or Information menu); suffixes are variants of the same series and generally use the same consumables. If in doubt, send us the exact model.
Page yield
25,000 pages (manufacturer data, about 5% coverage). Graphics or photo-heavy pages reduce the actual yield. The cost per page shown next to the price is calculated from the current price and this yield.
Installation
Tool-free replacement: open the cover, remove the used cartridge, take the new one out of its bag, rock it gently to distribute the toner, remove the protections, then insert until it clicks. The printer recognizes the cartridge. The used cartridge is recycled through the manufacturer's take-back program or your local collection.
Use and tips
The 418478 suits intensive or shared use: the cartridge (25,000 pages) lasts over 6 years at 300 pages per month and over 2 years at 1,000 pages per month. Beyond that, the 418481 costs less per page.
Store the cartridge in its packaging, flat, away from light and humidity, and unpack it only when installing. At the "Low" alert, order: the printer keeps printing until the replace message. Genuine cartridges preserve the printer's warranty.
