Editorial note

The Ricoh Aficio CL3500N printer stands out with its printing speed of 22 pages per minute, both in black and color, which helps optimize time when printing large documents. Its exceptional print resolution of 1200 x 1200 DPI ensures clear and precise results, ideal for both professional and personal needs. Additionally, the built-in duplex printing feature contributes to more economical paper usage while being environmentally friendly. With a maximum input capacity of 1690 sheets, it can handle a large volume of documents without requiring frequent reloads. The out-of-the-box network connectivity with support for multiple protocols ensures easy integration into modern office environments. However, there are some drawbacks to consider. The weight of 33 kg can make the installation and movement of the printer difficult, especially in tight spaces. While the printing speed is satisfactory, it may not be sufficient in high-volume environments, where faster models might be required. The internal memory of 128 MB may also limit the handling of more complex print jobs, leading to slowdowns. Furthermore, the 30-second warm-up time may seem too long for users seeking instant printing. Finally, the power consumption of 460 W during operation can impact long-term energy costs. Overall, the Ricoh Aficio CL3500N offers good value for money due to its high-performance features and robustness, but it is essential to weigh these advantages against its few limitations to determine if it meets your specific needs.
