Дар monochrome ягонаи-функсияи Ricoh SP 330DN осори хуб ва қодир churning аз ҳазор саҳифа дар як моҳ аст, лекин хароҷоти зиёд давида он кунад, ки пешниҳоди гарон.
The Ricoh SP 330DN Black and White Laser Printer ($195) is an entry-level single-function monochrome machine designed for use in small offices, or as a personal laser printer. It produces good-looking black and grayscale output, and it's plenty fast enough for the price. It also has high maximum monthly duty and recommended print volume ratings. But, like many laser printers in this class, it's plagued with running costs high enough to relegate it to low-volume applications, such as sales desks and similar environments where churning out quick one- or two-page quotes, receipts, and similar documents is the norm.
At 10.3 by 14.6 by 15.4 inches (HWD) and weighing 28.7 pounds, the Ricoh 330DN is, compared with the Editors' Choice Brother HL-L2370DW, a couple inches taller and longer and weighs almost twice as much. It's also bigger and heavier than Lexmark's single-function monochrome B2236dw and a few other closely positioned print-only models. Epson's inkjet alternative, the WorkForce Pro WF-M5299 is, on the other hand, several inches smaller all the way around and 5 pounds lighter. The 330DN is probably a bit big to fit comfortably on the average desktop.
As a print-only machine, it doesn't require much of a control panel. What you get is a handful of buttons, including Menu, Job Reset (cancel), Wi-Fi Direct, NFC, Back, and a set of navigation keys, as well as Data In and Error status indicators. This simple but effective button array is anchored by a four-line monochrome LCD with a vintage-looking drill-down menu structure for configuring security and other features.
Everything available from the control panel (and more) is also accessible from the 330DN's built-in website, or Web Image Monitor, as Ricoh calls it. From here you can configure and monitor all aspects of the device, from checking toner and paper levels to setting network and mobile security options. The web portal is also accessible and fully functional from your smartphone's browser.

If 300 sheets from two sources aren't enough, Ricoh offers a 250-sheet add-on that lists for $235, shown below. The Brother HL-L2370DW and the Lexmark B2236dw hold 251 sheets (both come with one-sheet multipurpose trays) and are not expandable, while Epson's WF-M5299 holds 330 sheets and is expandable to 830.
The 330DN's maximum monthly duty cycle is 35,000 prints, with a whopping 5,800 recommended monthly volume. Of the printers mentioned here, only the WF-M5299 has a higher maximum monthly duty cycle, but its recommended monthly print volume lower.
Compared with its sub-$200 competitors, the 330DN's connectivity features are somewhat sparse. Its standard interfaces include an Ethernet connection, connecting to a single computer via USB, and near-field communication, or NFC.
Wireless networking and Wi-Fi Direct, though, are available only through an optional USB adapter ($55), which is highly unusual nowadays. Nearly all printers, no matter what the price range, come with Wi-Fi 802.11. The 330DN provides additional mobile device support via Apple AirPrint, Google Cloud Print, Mopria Print Service, and Ricoh's own Smart Device Connector app for both Android and iOS.
Aside from the standard IPSec, SNMP, and WEP routing, monitoring, and authentication safeguards, the 330DN's security features include Locked Print (known as Secure Print on some other devices) for protecting documents at the printer level, allowing only users in possession of a password to release specific print jobs. In addition, the Wi-Fi USB dongle mentioned earlier provides some additional wireless networking security options.
Монанд ба як чанд истеҳсолкунандагони чопгари лазерӣ ба монанди Canon ва Lexmark, Ricoh сабтгоҳҳе, мошинҳои худро аслӣ ба ду-яктарафаи (дуплекс) чоп. Дар он ҳолатҳо, ки мо вақт ва суръати чоп сабти ҳам содак ва дуплекс дар Модулҳои. Барои муайян кардани чӣ гуна хуб 330DN медорад худ бар зидди рақобат чопгарҳои monochrome, Ман онро ба clocked он тавассути як қатор ҳуҷҷатҳои санҷиш (тавассути пайвасти Ethernet) аз стандарти Intel Core i5 testbed PC мо иҷро Windows 10 касбӣ churned.
The 330DN printed our 12-page Microsoft Word text document in duplex mode at the rate of 13.2 pages per minute (ppm), and churned out the same document on one-sided pages at 31.3ppm, or just short of Ricoh's 34ppm rating. Those speeds fell behind the Lexmark B2236dw by 4.8ppm for two-sided pages and 3.6ppm in simplex mode. Neither the Brother HL-L2370DW nor the Epson WF-M5299 default to two-sided printing; hence, I only recorded their one-sided scores. The Brother model placed 1.7ppm ahead of our Ricoh test unit, while Epson's lower-rated (24ppm) monochrome inkjet came in behind the 330DN by 3.8ppm.
Next, I tested the 330DN's ability to handle a document with graphics, photos, and text of various sizes and colors. Then, I combined the results of these tests with those from printing the 12-page text document in the previous test, to come up with a score for printing our entire suite of test documents. The 330DN churned at the rate of 9.4ppm when printing two-sided pages and 15.6ppm in simplex mode. Here, the Ricoh and Lexmark models scored almost exactly the same. The HL-L2370DW and the WF-M5799 managed 14.4ppm and 16.9ppm, respectively, on this portion of our tests in simplex mode.
Like most laser printers, the 330DN prints excellent-looking text with well-shaped characters and attractive spacing at all sizes I could see without magnification. Some of the decorative and headline test fonts we use looked better-than-average, too. The 330DN's type will hold up well in most scenarios, including those where you're trying to put your best foot forward.
Дар графикӣ соҳибкорӣ, ҷадвалҳо Excel, схемаҳо ва графикҳо, инчунин профилҳои PowerPoint, пур, ва рабочий, инчунин бо пур љолиб ва gradients, инчунин-мувофиқ ҳам барои тақсимотӣ дохилӣ ва берунӣ ва ҳисоботҳо омад. Тавре ки бо танҳо дар бораи ҳар гуна маҳсулоти принтер, махсусан хокистарӣ, ман пайдо кардани баъзе қабоҳаткор Тонер-тақсимоти наздик imperceptible, ба монанди blotches хурд ва роҳҳо, балки ин гуна камбудиҳои, ки ман буд, водоратон барои буданд.
The test photos I printed looked decent, too. This isn't by any means a photo printer, but it converts color images to grayscale with reasonable accuracy.
While the SP 330DN's running costs of 2.8 cents per page isn't necessarily high compared with its most direct competitors, it deserves your consideration. But if you plan on pushing the 330DN anywhere close to its 5,800-page recommended monthly print volume, it will cost you a small fortune over the life of the printer.
When you use the Lexmark B2236dw's highest-capacity toner cartridge, your running costs will be about 3.4 cents per page, and the Brother HL-L2370DW's cost per page is 3.5 cents. However, when you buy the Epson WF-M5299's 40,000-page ink bag (which, by the way, actually costs more than the printer itself) your per-page cost drops to 0.75 cents per page, or 2 cents lower than the 330DN. That can make a huge difference if you're printing hundreds of pages every month.
The SP 330DN is a highly capable single-function printer with an impressive duty cycle, but its high running costs relegate it to relatively low-volume printing. If your printing needs are more aggressive, you should look into either a higher-volume monochrome laser model, such as Brother's MFC-L6800DW, or an inkjet alternative, like our current favorite low- to medium-volume small-office monochrome machine, the Epson WF-M5299. Otherwise, if your output tops out at a couple hundred pages per month, the Ricoh SP 330DN's quality output and comparatively fast speeds will serve your needs.
