Why choose the genuine Ricoh 24 developer unit
The developer unit carries the toner to the drum. A long-life wear part, replaced at the counter: a genuine Ricoh unit keeps print density and avoids gray backgrounds.
When to replace it
The printer shows a message when the part's counter reaches end of life (Supplies status or Reports menu). Replacing it then avoids downtime and wear on other parts.
Printers compatible with the B0649640
The B0649640 is compatible with the following model (manufacturer data):
- Aficio MP5500/MP6500/MP7500/MP6000/MP6001/MP7000/MP7001/MP8000/MP8001/MP9001
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
350,000 pages (manufacturer data, about 5% coverage). Graphics or photo-heavy pages reduce the actual yield.
Installation
Installation described in the manufacturer's maintenance guide: switch the printer off, let hot parts cool down before working, replace the part, then reset the counter in the maintenance menu. A technician is recommended for fuser and transfer units.
Use and tips
Order as soon as the end-of-life message appears to avoid printer downtime.
Keep the part in its packaging until the intervention. After installation, check that the counter has restarted from zero (Supplies status or Maintenance menu).
