Found the office RICOH Aficio MP C4500 printer on the office network via IP# and the driver (v. 1.3) was installed automatically on my MB! BUT when printing to the printer from my MB all I get is a postscript dump, eg. Text + blank pages. Searching the forums I get the idea that the driver is only for Post Script.
Driversin:Here you can Download the Latest and Update version Ricoh mp 5002 Driver get good quality printing, scanning, USB Support, Wirless Network, Wifi support. Ricoh mp 5002 Driver software install you system better performance Ricoh mp 5002 Driver.
And I guess (but don't know for sure) that the printer is lacking the postscript module/feature. From I see that the RICOH Aficio MP C4500 is supported by OS X Mountain Lion (and as I mentioned, it did install without any problems). But I can't see that it should be only PostScript? From I can only find driver (v. 1.0) for OS X 10.7, not any for OS X 10.8 – haven't tried it – and still I can't see that it should be only for post script enabled printers. My office windows pc is printing fine to the RICOH Aficio.
The driver on here is a RPCS Printer Driver (v. The office tech-support will only take care of pc setup - thus I'm on my own when it comes to setting up the printer from my MB! Do I need a RPCS driver for OS X Mountain Lion? And what does RPCS mean? Any help is most appriciated!
RPCS is a Windows only printer language. The specifications for this printer that are listed in their brochure indicate that PCL 6 should also be a standard printer language for this printer. Only PostScript and direct PDF are optional.
Obviously, you do not have the PostScript card installed. You should be able to print using the pxlmono/pxlcolor drivers from OpenPrinting.org. You can download the drivers (be sure to get all three packages) from. Post back with any problems or if you need to use Job Codes. EDIT: The packages will work fine with Mountain Lion despite the page only listing up to 10.7. Message was edited by: Matt Broughton. Thank you guys.
This helped me a lot! To conclude, the working solution is: Download 3 drivers listed on this page: Direct links to the 3 drivers from page mentioned above are: Foomatic-RIP for Mac OS X 10.3.x (Panther) - Mac OS X 10.8.x (Mountain Lion): - dowload and install this pxlmono 1.9 for Mac OS X 10.3.x (Panther) - Mac OS X 10.8.x (Mountain Lion): - dowload and install this Ghostscript for Mac OS X 10.3.x (Panther) - Mac OS X 10.8.x (Mountain Lion): - dowload and install this I think Foomatic-RIP should be installed first, as some of the other packages were asking for it during the installation.
In my case, printer was Ricoh Aficio MP C3500. When installing, don't forget to choose the PXL driver/version.
Hope this helps! Matt I've got an similar issue with a C5502 from ricoh.
The only ricoh Drivers I have found are Postscript PPD. I need to use copy tracking codes. The config page from the copier under Printer Language says Adobe PDF 1.03, RPCS 3.12.23, PCL 5c 1.07, PCL XL 1.07 I don't see Postscript 3 I only see 'PDF' here is a link to a pdf of the config page Basicly the machine gets the print job in accepts the print code then cancels the print job.

Hi, Our office is using a Ricoh MP C6502 PS printer. I added the printer to my iMac (Late 2013, running 10.9.1) by IP address, using the LPD - as recommended by our vendor.
Other computers in the office, similarly configured, aren't having this problem. But on my computer, the default print setting (under the Layout dropdown) is Two-Sided: Long-edge binding. I've tried changing the default print settings, but the changes don't stick.
I have also deleted & re-added the printer as well as totally resetting the print sytem ( ), but every time I print something, two-sided printing is set to 'Long-Edge binding'. Any suggestions on how to approach this? I also tried using the CUPS system to change the default to double sided printing = off, but this didn't take either. Thanks in advance, Tom.
