Just as a counterpoint to Neil, I really cannot recommend Ricoh
printers at all. My Ricoh AP2610 (the predecessor to the AP610 --
they use all the same parts) has easily been the worst printer I have
ever owned. On top of that, the toner cartridges are extremely
expensive and many are defective out-of-the box or start to fail long
before the ink is out (black smudges on the padge, etc.) (These are
Ricoh cartridges, not third-party cartridges.) I have, on multiple
occasions, had to call in a Ricoh tech for a house call (at $300 a
visit) to fix essential parts that have broken off, etc.
When I bought the printer, the price seemed too good to be true --
and it was.
Cheers,

Assuming you are asking about Laser printers, I have had been
highly satisfied with my purchase of a Ricoh AP610 N, also marketed
by Savin and Gestetner under different model designations. This
handles 11 x 17 paper, which meets my needs for now. An abstract
of the specs: 1200 x 1200 dpi; 35 pages per minute; toner cost (on
my output, your experience may be different) about three quarters
of a cent per page. Biggest disadvantage: a bit hard to find;
pretty much have to go through an authorized dealer.
