Color multifunction printer with id scanner


The color multifunction device Ricoh SP C360SFNw does not work with lasers, as it is usual with "laser" printers. The exposure of the image drum is provided by an LED line - the user practically doesn't notice any difference. The advantage should be a somewhat quieter operation and a somewhat more compact design. Nevertheless, the Ricoh is big and heavy - after all, it has a lot to offer: In addition to the printing unit, which outputs up to 30 pages per minute (colour or B/W), the device has a scanner with document feeder for 50 sheets, fax, a large turnable touch screen (7 inches, 17.8 cm) and a card scanner on the left side of the printer. Only the paper cassette is a bit small for a printer of this class with a volume of 250 sheets. If you need more capacity, you have to upgrade a second paper cassette for 250 or 500 sheets for an extra charge.

In addition to the device under test (Ricoh SP C360SFNw), there is also the C360SNw - an identical device without fax - and the C361SFNw. The C361SFNw is sold by Ricoh only through specialist dealers and is slightly differently equipped.

The "ID-Copy" function is particularly interesting - almost all other multifunction devices now offer this, but the Ricoh model has a separate entry on the left side. You can insert ID cards such as business cards, ID cards or employee ID cards into the slot and copy or scan them on both sides at the touch of a button on the touchscreen - or both at the same time if you wish.

Consumables and printing costs

The included "starter toners" contain only a small amount of ink and are already empty after 2,500 b/w or 1,500 colour pages. The toner cartridges, which can be bought later, are sufficient for up to 7,000 black and 5,000 colour pages.

Printer channel measures the toner range with a [article 34 {own, full-area test document (dc_fotoyield)}]. Of course, this value is not comparable to the ISO test, as our test is a document with a significantly higher toner application. Ricoh's SP C360SFNw colour laser printer is around 20 cents per full-colour page, making it one of the low-cost printers to maintain. The ISO value of around 6 cents is also excellent.

Druckerchannel bottom line

The Ricoh SP C360SFNw is a color multifunction device like many others. However, it stands out due to two features: It prints particularly cheaply, which is unfortunately not a matter of course even with higher-priced models. There are printers where a full colour page costs more than one euro.

A second important point is the ID card slot, which can be particularly important if, for example, an authority frequently has to copy or scan identity cards or other cards. With the feeder, this can be done very quickly, without having to place the card on the scanner glass and turn it over.

Also the "Dual-Duplex"-scanner is not always available even in the more expensive models - it can be very useful if one frequently has to copy double-sided originals. Either the mechanics on the scanner cannot turn the original at all, then the user has to do it by hand. Or the mechanics can rotate the original automatically. But this takes time and can lead to paper jams. The ideal solution is two scan lines that automatically scan a sheet of paper from both sides in a single pass - it's fast and doesn't require any mechanics to turn the paper.
