Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Ricoh Pro C720S is actually for

Most printer pages just tell you what a printer does. Here's the honest version: when this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We sell a lot of these for a reason, but the reason is not "every office."

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • Pick this if you run 50,000 to 200,000 color pages a month and want a known-quantity production workhorse at used-market prices.
  • Pick this if you need 13 x 19 sheet capability for booklets, brochures, and 11 x 17 imposed work.
  • Pick this if you also need walk-up copy and scan with a real ADF, not just a print engine.
  • Pick this if you have an in-house operator who can manage calibration and basic maintenance.
  • Pick this if your shop already runs Ricoh and your tech knows the platform.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • It's fine if your average is 30,000-50,000 pages a month with peak weeks pushing higher.
  • It's fine if you print mostly to 100 lb cover and don't need the 360 gsm range of newer presses.
  • It's fine if 1200 dpi meets your quality bar — most marketing work doesn't need more.
  • It's fine if you have a service contract that includes the fuser as a wear part.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • Skip this if you need current-generation color management or G7 certification workflows.
  • Skip this if your volume is under 20,000 color pages a month.
  • Skip this if you need fifth-color stations for white, clear, or neon.
  • Skip this if banner printing past 19.2 inches is part of the workflow.
  • Skip this if you can't get parts and service support for an older Ricoh production line in your area.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Ricoh Pro C720S is a 72 ppm sheet-fed color digital press aimed at print-for-pay shops, in-house corporate reproduction departments, and creative studios that need consistent color at meaningful volume. Color and black-and-white both run at 72 ppm at 1200 dpi, with media support up to 13 x 19.2 inches and 300 gsm covers. The 100-sheet ARDF lets it double as a high-volume copier when needed. Sweet-spot monthly volume is roughly 50,000 to 200,000 pages, with a 320,000 page max duty cycle. This is an older generation press — production-grade build and reliable, but the controller, fiery options, and finishing ecosystem are dated compared to the C7200 series. The thing buyers regret most is underestimating consumable cost: at this volume class, toner, drums, and the periodic PM kit add up fast, and used units often arrive with worn fusers that need replacement before they earn their keep.

FAQ

Ricoh Pro C720S, common questions

The questions we get asked most often on this model. If yours isn't here, call (888) 574-5120 and get an answer in about 30 seconds.

Yes, the Ricoh Pro C720S ships with a starter toner cartridge. The starter toner has an estimated yield of approximately 72,000 pages at 5% coverage. Replacement toner cartridges, such as the genuine Ricoh Type C900 (e.g., black, part 828072), also offer a yield of about 72,000 pages. When you lease through us with toner included, you never pay for toner separately.
The Ricoh Pro C720S is a 72 ppm sheet-fed color digital press designed for high-volume production, while the Ricoh IM C6500 is a 65 ppm production-class color laser MFP with advanced finishing options. The C720S is better suited for print-for-pay shops and corporate reproduction departments, whereas the IM C6500 offers more versatility with its MFP capabilities, including scanning and inline finishing. The IM C6500 also features a more modern Android-based UI and higher print resolution (2,400 x 4,800 dpi). For small offices, the IM C6500 may be a better fit due to its multifunction capabilities.
The Ricoh Pro C720S is designed for high-volume production with a monthly page volume of 50,000 to 200,000 pages, making it more suitable for print-for-pay shops or large corporate departments rather than small businesses. Its 72 ppm speed and production-grade build are overkill for typical small business needs. For a small business, consider stepping up to a more commercial option that fits your volume and budget.
Yes, the Ricoh Pro C720S supports full-color printing at 72 ppm and 1200 dpi resolution. It is designed for high-volume color production and is ideal for businesses requiring consistent color output.
