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

Trying to make Finale play the chord symbols entered in a score, Finale plays
them higher than the normal range of a left hand, even over a melody written
in treble key.
Is there no way to tell Finale to play them an octave lower or so?
