Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Savin 917 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...

  • You run a small office or departmental workgroup of 3-10 people printing 500-2,000 pages a month and need a compact desktop B&W MFP.
  • You need to copy, scan, and fax legal-size documents on a flat platen — book scans, oversized originals, brochures.
  • You want a small footprint (18.94 x 19.09 x 17.72 inches) that fits on a workgroup credenza or in a small office.
  • You support PCL5e/6, XPS, or PostScript 3 across Windows, Mac, or UNIX environments.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print 2,000-3,500 pages a month — the 917 handles it but you're at the upper end; toner replacement gets frequent.
  • You scan multi-page documents but only have a flatbed — workable for occasional use, but plan for the optional ADF accessory if you scan stacks regularly.
  • You want gigabit Ethernet or wireless — both are optional, not standard. Budget for the accessory.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You need color — this is monochrome only.
  • You print more than 5,000 pages a month — the 917 is a small-office unit, not a workgroup workhorse. Look at the 9033B (33 ppm) or 9240 (40 ppm).
  • You need 11 x 17 tabloid output — caps at 8.5 x 14 (legal).
  • You need standard duplex printing — the 917 ships without duplex; the duplex unit is an option.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Savin 917 is a compact desktop monochrome multifunction system for small offices and departmental workgroups (3-10 users) that need copy, print, scan, and fax in a small footprint. It runs at 17 ppm at 600 x 600 dpi with a 7.5-second first-copy time, a 250-sheet standard tray expandable with two optional 250-sheet trays, and a legal-size flatbed platen — useful for booklets, brochures, and oversized originals. Footprint is 18.94 x 19.09 x 17.72 inches at 59.53 lbs, so it fits on a credenza or in a small office without dominating the room. Connectivity is 10/100 Ethernet and USB 2.0 standard, with optional Gigabit Ethernet and wireless. Driver support covers PCL5e/6, XPS, and optional PostScript 3 across Windows, Mac, and UNIX. The toner yield is 7,000 impressions. Most buyers are 3-10 person offices printing 500-2,000 pages a month who specifically need legal-size flatbed scanning. The thing buyers regret: not budgeting for the ADF and duplex accessories upfront. The 917 ships compact and bare — by the time you've added auto duplex, an ADF, and gigabit Ethernet, you're 30% over the base price.

Supplies & consumables

Toner, yields, and what to actually reorder

The #1 question we get on this printer is "which toner do I buy?" Short answer: you have two cartridge options and a drum. Standard yield TN830 covers roughly 1,200 pages. High yield TN830XL covers roughly 4,500 pages and is the better value for most offices. Pick XL unless you print very little.

The drum unit (DR810) is separate and usually lasts 15,000 to 30,000 pages before it needs replacing. At a typical small office volume, expect to change it once every 2 to 4 years.

If you lease this printer through us, toner and drum are included. You never pay for supplies separately. That's usually the better deal once you add up real costs over 3 years.
