Is this the right printer for you?
Who the Ricoh Aficio Mp C2800 is actually for
Most equipment pages just tell you what a device 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
offer equipment for every business need, but the right machine depends on your specific workflow.
Best fit
Pick this if...
You run a department of 15-40 people that needs A3 (11x17) and 12x18 color in-house and prints 4,000-15,000 pages a month.
You scan stacks of multi-page documents daily — the 100-sheet ARDF and 8.5-inch panel handle batch jobs better than the smaller C2030 chassis.
You already run a Ricoh fleet on @Remote and want one more A3 color device that drops in.
You need durable enterprise hardware — the C2800/C3300 chassis is rated for 150K duty cycle and the engine commonly hits 1M pages with PMs.
Works fine
You'll be happy if...
You print 2,500-4,000 pages a month — overbuilt for that, you're amortizing a heavier machine over a longer lease.
You need finishing (staple, hole-punch, booklet) — the inner finishers and 50-sheet stapler bolt on, just plan footprint and accessory invoice.
You're replacing a Konica bizhub C284 or Canon iR-ADV C2225 — operators adapt to the Ricoh panel in 2-3 weeks.
Look elsewhere
Skip this if...
You print more than 20,000 pages a month — step up to an MP C4502 or Pro C series for the per-page math.
You print under 2,000 pages a month — too much machine; get a desktop A4 MFP.
You need single-pass duplex scanning — reversing ADF on this generation; for single-pass go to MP C3502 or newer.
You need official Ricoh service — end-of-service from Ricoh; you're on third-party parts and aftermarket consumables.
You need modern security/AD/TLS 1.2+ — pre-Smart Operation Panel controller, won't pass a current IT audit.
Full specifications
Every spec, no guessing
The Ricoh Aficio MP C2800 is a 28 ppm A3 color laser multifunction from Ricoh's enterprise C2800/C3300 platform (circa 2009). It prints and copies at 28 ppm in mono and color up to 12x18, runs auto duplex standard, ships with a 100-sheet reversing ADF and an 8.5-inch color WVGA touchscreen, and has dual 550-sheet drawers (1,200-sheet base capacity with bypass) expandable with optional 1,500-sheet LCT. The 150,000-page monthly duty cycle and durable engine make this the right fit for departments of 15-40 people running 4,000-15,000 pages a month — same chassis we still see in active use at law firms, schools, and county offices that bought them in 2010-2012. Strengths: the chassis is genuinely one of Ricoh's most reliable enterprise color platforms, the 8.5-inch panel is much better than the 4.3-inch on the C2030/C2050, and toner cartridges are high-yield (up to 21,500 mono / 15,000 color). The thing buyers regret today: end-of-service from Ricoh, the GW controller predates Smart Operation Panel, and security won't pass a modern audit. For a current equivalent at this speed, get the IM C2510.
Three ways to get this printer, each priced to match how you actually use it. Most
small offices lease because toner and maintenance are bundled. If you know what you need, buy
outright. If you already own one, just reorder supplies.
Final lease rate depends on term length, credit profile, and bundled supplies. Outright purchase and
supplies pricing varies with bundled warranty, install packages, and order volume. Request a quote for
exact pricing.

FAQ
Ricoh Aficio Mp C2800, common questions
The questions we get asked most often on this model. If yours isn't here, call (888) 574-5120 and get an answer in about 30 seconds.
Yes, the Ricoh Aficio MP C2800 ships with a starter toner cartridge. The starter black toner yields approximately 20,000 pages, while color toners (cyan, magenta, yellow) yield around 15,000–16,000 pages at 5% coverage. Replacement toners include the Ricoh 841276 (black, 20,000 pages) and color cartridges (841421/841422/841423, 15,000–16,000 pages each). When you lease through us with toner included, you never pay for toner separately.
The Ricoh Aficio MP C2800 is a color A3 multifunction printer with a 28 ppm speed, while the Ricoh IM 2500 is a monochrome A3 MFP with a 25 ppm speed. The MP C2800 includes color printing, an 8.5-inch touchscreen, and a 150,000-page monthly duty cycle, whereas the IM 2500 features a 10.1-inch Smart Operation Panel, faster duplex scanning (240 ipm), and Always Current Technology for firmware updates. The IM 2500 is better suited for high-volume monochrome printing, while the MP C2800 is ideal for offices needing color output. For small offices prioritizing color and reliability, the MP C2800 is a strong choice, though the IM 2500 offers modern features and lower cost per page for monochrome needs.
Yes, the Ricoh Aficio MP C2800 is well-suited for small businesses, especially those with 15–40 employees printing 4,000–15,000 pages monthly. Its 28 ppm speed, auto duplex, and 1,200-sheet base capacity handle moderate workloads efficiently. The durable chassis and high-yield toners (20,000 black/15,000 color) reduce downtime. However, its older firmware and security limitations may not meet modern IT standards.
Yes, the Ricoh Aficio MP C2800 is a color laser multifunction printer that supports full-color printing at 28 ppm. It uses separate cyan, magenta, yellow, and black toners for vibrant output up to 12x18 inches. This makes it ideal for businesses needing color documents, marketing materials, or presentations.
