The Ricoh AP306 and AP306D are advanced multifunction printers designed to meet the needs of small to medium-sized businesses. Both models deliver robust printing capabilities coupled with advanced features that enhance productivity, streamline workflows, and provide cost-effective solutions for document management.

The AP306 is a versatile A4 black-and-white printer that excels in delivering high-quality prints with impressive speed and reliability.

Featuring advanced security protocols, including network authentication and encryption, the printers ensure that sensitive documents remain protected throughout the printing process.

Additionally, the Ricoh AP306 and AP306D come with a user-friendly interface, allowing for easy navigation and operation. The intuitive control panel simplifies printing tasks, enabling users to access essential functions with minimal training.

Connectivity is another strong aspect of these models, as they offer multiple options, including USB, Ethernet, and mobile printing capabilities. This flexibility allows users to print from various devices, whether it's a desktop, laptop, or mobile phone, without any hassle.

In terms of paper handling, both models feature a standard paper capacity of 250 sheets, with an option to expand through additional trays. This adaptability ensures continuous printing without frequent interruptions for paper refills.

Overall, the Ricoh AP306 and AP306D are reliable choices for businesses seeking efficiency, quality, and advanced technology in their printing solutions. With their feature-rich design and robust performance, these printers are well-suited to handle the demands of modern workplaces.
