    How to fix blurred printouts from Ricoh Aficio SP C240SF?
    • M
      Michelle PowellSep 12, 2025
      If the whole printout from Ricoh All in One Printer is blurred, use paper that has been stored properly to avoid dampness. Select an anti-humidity level in the system settings. Note that selecting a higher level may increase the time it takes for the first print to complete. If toner saving is enabled, printing will be less dense. If economy color is selected, print will be at a lower density. If the toner is almost depleted, replace the print cartridge. If condensation has collected, allow the machine to acclimatize after a rapid change in temperature or humidity.
