The Top Reasons to Buy a New Printer in 2023

The Top 5 Reasons to Consider New Printing Equipment in 2023 1. Your Printers Are OldOutdated printers can incur additional print costs. They typically necessitate more upkeep and energy. In terms of energy consumption, newer printers and copiers are more efficient. Furthermore, when print devices reach the age of seven or eight years, their manufacturers typically stop producing replacement parts. This can make repairing an older printer a costly endeavour. 2. Your Cost-Per-Page Is Too HighToner usage becomes more efficient as print technology advances. Toner is an expensive consumable, so the ability to print with less toner can significantly reduce your cost-per-page. 3. Your Devices Are Single FunctionMulti-function printers, which allow users to print, scan, fax, and copy, are an excellent way to save energy and space. Furthermore, scanning documents directly to email or a cloud folder is possible with newer print technologies, which can eliminate a lot of extra steps. 4. Your Employees Are FrustratedWhen printing is a necessary part of your job and your printers fail, it can be stressful and frustrating for your employees. It may also have an effect on your bottom line. 5. Your Print Security Is Almost NonexistentNetworked printers provide convenience, but they can also provide potential entry points for hackers if not properly secured. Printing equipment that is more than seven years old is simply not capable of repelling today’s cybercriminals. If print security hasn’t been on your organization’s radar, it’s one of the most compelling reasons to upgrade your equipment in 2023. Pro tip: when you get your new equipment, be sure that either your dealer or your staff updates its default admin password. *Other Model AvailableRICOH MPC3503/ MPC5503 | RICOH MPC3504/ MPC5504 CONTACT US: 03-3341 6296 | 018-788 6296 | 018-228 6296

How to Add the Print Option on a Web Page

Add a print link to a Web page if you believe viewers will want to print it. A print link, when placed prominently, encourages visitors to print your page. Print links can be created using a variety of different coding languages, but HTML and CSS are the most user-friendly. Because other coding languages aren’t always supported or enabled on viewers’ computers, using HTML and CSS ensures that the print option is available to everyone.   1.Open your HTML editor programme and navigate to the location on your page where you want to add the print link.   2.Copy and paste the following HTML/CSS code into the page. You can replace the “Print this page” label with a label of your choosing:   <a href=”#” onclick=”window.print();return false;”>Print this page</a>   3.Save your Web page and click on the “View in browser” button in the menu bar. Click on the “Print this page” link on the page to open the Print dialog box in your Web browser. *Other Model AvailableRICOH MPC3503/ MPC5503 | RICOH MPC3504/ MPC5504 CONTACT US: 03-3341 6296 | 018-788 6296 | 018-228 6296

How to Show Grid Lines When Printing in Microsoft Excel

By default, when you print a worksheet in Microsoft Excel, the program removes the grid lines separating each cell. To preserve the grid lines in your printout, you must modify the display settings for each applicable worksheet. Microsoft Excel, however, only shows borders around cells containing actual data. If you want the program to print grid lines for empty cells as well, make sure to include those cells in the print area. 1.Select the worksheet or worksheets you want to print, and then click the “Page Layout” tab. 2.Check “Print” under Gridlines in the Sheet Options group, and then press “Ctrl-P” to go to the Print window. 3.Choose your printer from the associated drop-down menu, and then click the “Print” button to send your selected worksheet or worksheets to the print queue. *Other Model AvailableRICOH MPC3503/ MPC5503 | RICOH MPC3504/ MPC5504 CONTACT US: 03-3341 6296 | 018-788 6296 | 018-228 6296

My Printer Keeps Saying “In Queue”

You’ve checked your printer’s output job queue several times, and the same documents are listed as ready for processing each time. If your printer keeps telling you that the file you need on paper is still pending, you can narrow down the cause by inspecting your print process from the flow of document data to the device’s output tray. MemoryDocuments that linger in the output queue of pending jobs without progressing to completion signal potential printer memory problems. At the heart of every laser printer lies a miniature computer, complete with its own supply of RAM. Although entry-level laser devices include a fixed installation of memory chips, workgroup-class hardware, proofers intended for the graphic arts and copiers that double as color printers, offer optionally upgradeable memory. When you overtax your printer with too much data for its memory capacity, or it accidentally holds on to stale data from a previous document, the device may have trouble completing the output jobs you send it. Although inkjet printers draw their processing capabilities from their host computer’s installed RAM, the memory they use reduces the amount available for other computing tasks. If memory problems frequently snarl your printing workflow, look to upgrades as the simplest, most cost-effective solution. DocumentIf you’re accustomed to watching output emerge at lightning speed when you send text-heavy word processing documents and number-dominated spreadsheets to your printer, the slowdown you see when you work with graphics-laden design documents or complex database-dependent projects may leave you thinking you have a hardware problem. Document data size relates directly to print processing time, but unless you check the size of your files before you print them, you may not realize how much information they contain for your hardware to digest. Rather than halt the print job on the suspicion that file corruption has slowed its output, treat your machine like the proverbial watched pot and let it catch up. If the print job never finishes, however, you may be faced with a troubled file, in which case you can try printing it in sections to isolate the problem. DriverFrom small desktop photo printers to large floor-standing devices with multiple paper trays, output hardware can’t understand computer document data without an intermediary to translate file information into printable material. That liaison consists of the printer driver software you install — or your operating system already includes — to complete the addition of output hardware to your computer or network. If your printer provided trouble-free service before you completed an OS update, and now your documents linger in its output queue without satisfactory completion, update your printer drive to correspond with your OS. Printer manufacturers maintain repositories of downloadable driver updates on their websites, from which you can select the appropriate resource. StatusPrinter status can have an impact on printer performance. After replacing a toner cartridge, a machine that remains in offline standby mode cannot process the projects in its output queue. Without human intervention to clear out snarled sheets, a device with a paper jam cannot resume printing. A faulty or empty ink tank or toner cartridge, or an ink level that is too low on a solid ink device, effectively halts printing and freezes pending jobs in the output queue. Check for warning signals on the printer’s display panel or in the management software that alert you to the need for new supplies if it appears unresponsive or excessively slow. *Other Model AvailableRICOH MPC3503/ MPC5503 | RICOH MPC3504/ MPC5504 CONTACT US: 03-3341 6296 | 018-788 6296 | 018-228 6296

How to Scale Up a Drawing on a Printer

By default, Microsoft prints drawings based on their pixel size. For example, if a new logo drawing is 600 pixels wide, its printed form will be twice as wide as a similar 300-pixel file. You could scale up a small image file, increasing its pixel size and enlarging your printed output. You can also scale the drawing up during printing. This makes any image large enough to fill an entire printed sheet of paper. 1.Open the drawing using Windows Photo Viewer, the default Windows program for viewing several common image formats. 2.Click the “Print” drop-down menu and select “Print.” 3.Select “Full page photo” from layout pane on the right. 4.Check the box marked “Fit picture to frame” below the image preview. 5.Click “Print.”

What Are the Two Main Characteristics of Inkjet Printers That Affect Image Quality?

Whatever types of documents your company needs to print, you want output hardware that provides the best performance for the lowest possible purchase price. Today’s inkjet printers produce excellent photographic output and text quality that rivals that of a laser printer. Consider two top-level hardware characteristics as they relate to image quality when evaluating inkjet printers in light of your business and its typical document workflow, and select the version of these attributes that matches your workflow. Printhead DesignInkjet printers employ one of two basic printhead technologies. Thermal designs use heat to push tiny ink bubbles onto the paper, whereas piezo-electric designs use electricity to change the shape of the nozzle, releasing ink droplets of varying sizes. Because piezo-electric printheads do not require heat to force out ink, they may offer faster print speeds and longer hardware durability than thermal counterparts. Furthermore, smaller ink droplets can result in improved image reproduction. Ink TypeInkjet printers use dye- or pigment-based inks. Dye-based inks produce a wide range of brilliant colours, allow for smaller ink droplets, and are less expensive than pigment-based inks, but their absorption into paper can blur fine detail reproduction. Furthermore, dye-based inks fade faster than pigment-based inks. Their water-soluble colouring agents result in output with little water resistance. Pigment-based inks set on the surface of paper rather than sinking into it, making them less susceptible to water damage and fading, but they produce a narrower colour gamut. Ink UsageInkjet printers with low prices typically use only two ink cartridges: one for black and one for cyan, magenta, and yellow. If one of the three colours runs out before the other two, you’ll have to discard a partially viable cartridge. Individual ink tanks or cartridges are used for each ink colour in higher-end printers; photo printers may use eight or ten inks to produce subtle colour variations. Image reproduction quality can be affected not only by printhead and ink type, but also by the number of inks used by the printer and whether it includes options for optimal black output on papers with different surface finishes, typically glossy or matte. ConsiderationsAlthough the paper you use isn’t a printer feature, it has an impact on output quality almost as much as the hardware’s capabilities and limitations. Papers designed to improve the perceived sharpness and clarity of printed output by using specialised chemistry to produce well-matched surface characteristics can improve the perceived sharpness and clarity of printed output. Printing on standard office bond paper, on the other hand, yields inferior results, especially when printing photographs or graphics. *Other Model AvailableRICOH MPC3503/ MPC5503 | RICOH MPC3504/ MPC5504 CONTACT US: 03-3341 6296 | 018-788 6296 | 018-228 6296

My Printer Is Printing Symbols

When your office printer starts printing pages that look like secret code rather than business documents, your first thought may be to reprint your file and see if there is an improvement. If your reprint exhibits the same symptoms, you’re dealing with a problem that won’t go away without troubleshooting. To find the source of your on-paper anomalies, examine your output process and hardware, beginning with the document you were attempting to print. File ContentWhen you see jumbled, random symbols on the page instead of the expected document content, make sure you printed the file from the correct application for its data type. If you print a graphic file from a text-processing application, for example, you’ll get page after page of letters, numbers, symbols, and punctuation instead of readable output. Some applications will happily open files that they cannot understand, and if you finish your printing task quickly, you may not notice what you printed from where. Font-File CorruptionCorrupted or incompatible font files can wreak havoc on printed output. You can see jumbled characters on your screen as well as on paper if your fonts include a file that was corrupted during a power outage, you accidentally loaded two versions of the same typeface – both identifying themselves to your operating system under the same name – or you’re trying to use a freeware font file that’s not well formed. Replacing the font software with a fresh copy or a viable alternative should solve the issue. Bad Data ConnectionYour printed output is dependent on the data connection that exists between your printer and your computer. When your cabling fails, your output suffers as well. Connection issues can manifest themselves in garbled printouts due to anything from a loose data cable to a damaged one. Check for signal strength and consistency if your printer connects wirelessly, and if you’re connecting through a hub, try plugging the printer cable directly into your CPU instead. Printer DriverThe driver software that sits between your printer and your operating system allows the hardware to understand the data you send it and the operating system to make the data available. If the driver becomes corrupt, or if an incompatible or poorly designed update is installed, you may encounter issues ranging from onscreen error messages to on-paper glitches. Check the website of your printer manufacturer for a downloadable driver installer and watch for an improvement in your printing process as a result. *Other Model AvailableRICOH MPC3503/ MPC5503 | RICOH MPC3504/ MPC5504 CONTACT US: 03-3341 6296 | 018-788 6296 | 018-228 6296
