Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Ricoh Aficio Mp 4000b is actually for

Most printer pages just tell you what a printer does. Here's the honest version: when this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We sell a lot of these for a reason, but the reason is not "every office."

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • You run an enterprise workgroup or print room of 20-50 people that needs A3 (11x17) black-and-white copying at 40 ppm.
  • You print and copy 5,000-25,000 pages a month — well inside the 200,000-page duty cycle.
  • You're buying it primarily as a copier — the "B" suffix means base copier configuration; print, scan, fax modules are added as optional kits.
  • You want dual 550-sheet trays standard (1,100 sheets total) plus a 100-sheet bypass to handle long unattended runs.
  • You're standardized on the Ricoh MP 4000/5000 platform and want a unit your service tech already supports.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print up to 35,000 pages a month — the engine handles it, but plan PM kits and toner ordering accordingly.
  • You need print and scan from desks — the B (base) model needs the printer/scanner unit added; the standard MP 4000 ships with print and scan included.
  • You want fax — it's an optional kit on this platform.
  • You want Wi-Fi — wireless is an optional accessory, not built in on this generation.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You need color. This is mono only — get an MP C-series or current IM C model.
  • You print under 2,000 pages a month — you're paying for an enterprise A3 copier and using a fraction of it.
  • You need single-pass duplex scanning at high speed — the optional ARDF here is reversing, so duplex scan throughput is roughly half single-pass.
  • You need a modern touchscreen with apps — this predates the Smart Operation Panel; you get an 8.5" LCD with hard keys.
  • You don't have a Ricoh dealer or service contract — this is a 2010-era platform; toner is still around but PM kits and firmware support route through dealers.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Ricoh Aficio MP 4000B is a black-and-white A3 multifunction sold as a base copier configuration — the "B" tag means print, scan, and fax modules are added as optional kits instead of bundled. It's built for enterprise workgroups and print rooms of 20-50 people that need real tabloid (11x17) copying at 40 ppm with a 200,000-page monthly duty cycle (Ricoh's recommended working range is 5,000-25,000 pages/month). Standard paper capacity is 1,100 sheets across two 550-sheet trays plus a 100-sheet bypass, expandable up to 4,300 sheets with the optional LCT. First copy is 4.1 seconds at 600 x 600 dpi; auto duplex on print is standard for letter and ledger. The 8.5-inch color LCD is the same operator interface as the MP 5000B at 50 ppm. The thing buyers regret: misreading the B suffix. If your front desk genuinely just needs a high-volume copier and rarely prints from PCs, the B saves real money over the full MP 4000. If everyone in the office prints to it daily, buy the printer/scanner unit upfront — quoting it later is more expensive than bundling it in. This platform is a 2010-era workhorse; toner and parts are still available, and the chassis is a known quantity for Ricoh-trained techs.

Supplies & consumables

Toner, yields, and what to actually reorder

The #1 question we get on this printer is "which toner do I buy?" Short answer: you have two cartridge options and a drum. Standard yield TN830 covers roughly 1,200 pages. High yield TN830XL covers roughly 4,500 pages and is the better value for most offices. Pick XL unless you print very little.

The drum unit (DR810) is separate and usually lasts 15,000 to 30,000 pages before it needs replacing. At a typical small office volume, expect to change it once every 2 to 4 years.

If you lease this printer through us, toner and drum are included. You never pay for supplies separately. That's usually the better deal once you add up real costs over 3 years.

FAQ

Ricoh Aficio Mp 4000b, common questions

The questions we get asked most often on this model. If yours isn't here, call (704) 741-0821 and get an answer in about 30 seconds.

Yes, the Ricoh Aficio MP 4000B ships with a starter toner cartridge that yields approximately 30,000 pages at 5% coverage. The replacement toner model is Ricoh 884922 (also known as Type 4500A or 841346), which also provides a yield of 30,000 pages. When you lease through us with toner included, you never pay for toner separately.
The Ricoh Aficio MP 4000B is a 40 ppm monochrome copier with a 200,000-page monthly duty cycle, designed for larger workgroups of 20-50 people, while the Ricoh IM 2500 is a 25 ppm monochrome multifunction printer suited for offices of 10-30 people. The MP 4000B has a higher monthly page volume recommendation (5,000-25,000 pages) compared to the IM 2500's 2,500-8,000 pages. Additionally, the IM 2500 features a 10.1-inch Smart Operation Panel and Always Current Technology for firmware updates, whereas the MP 4000B has an 8.5-inch color LCD. For small offices needing tabloid output and advanced scanning, the IM 2500 offers a more modern feature set.
The Ricoh Aficio MP 4000B is designed for larger workgroups of 20-50 people with a monthly page volume of 5,000-25,000 pages, which may exceed the needs of a typical small business. Its 40 ppm speed and high duty cycle are better suited for enterprise environments. Small businesses with lower print volumes might find it more cost-effective to consider a smaller, more modern multifunction printer.
No, the Ricoh Aficio MP 4000B is a monochrome printer and only prints in black and white. For color printing, consider alternatives like the Ricoh IM C2500, Ricoh IM C3000, or Ricoh IM C4500.
