    How to prevent frequent misfeeds in Ricoh MP C4503?
    • E
      Eric WhiteheadAug 23, 2025
      If misfeeds occur frequently with your Ricoh All in One Printer, it may be due to using curled paper. Take the stiffness out of the paper with your hands to straighten out the curl, and load the paper upside down so that the curled edges face downward. Also, the tray's side or end fences may not be set properly. Check that the side or end fences are set properly.

      If misfeeds occur frequently with your Ricoh All in One Printer, it may be because paper of undetectable size has been loaded. If you load a paper size that is not selected automatically, you need to specify the paper size with the control panel.

      If the Ricoh All in One Printer indicator lamp remains lit, and the machine does not enter Sleep mode even when the Energy Saver key is pressed, it could be because the ADF is open. Close the ADF. Also, check if the machine is communicating with external equipment. Wait a little longer.
