Key Advantages

The Ricoh P 502 offers fast monochrome printing speeds which boost office productivity significantly. Its compact footprint makes it ideal for limited workspace environments. The inclusion of multiple connectivity options such as USB, Ethernet, and optional Wi-Fi facilitates versatile integration into network setups. The high print resolution provides professional-quality text and graphics output suitable for business documents. Energy-efficient design and quick warm-up times contribute to reduced operating costs. Additionally, support for common printing protocols ensures compatibility with a wide range of software and operating systems.

Limitations

Being a monochrome printer, the Ricoh P 502 does not support color printing, which may be limiting for some applications. The standard memory capacity of 128 MB might restrict handling of very complex print jobs or high-volume output without upgrades. The paper input capacity is moderate at 250 sheets, requiring frequent replenishment in heavy use scenarios. It lacks advanced multifunction features such as scanning, copying, or faxing which are common in all-in-one devices. The device does not include an automatic duplex unit as standard, requiring manual intervention or optional accessories for double-sided printing. Firmware updates and driver support for newer operating systems might be limited as the device ages.
