I have the Ricoh SG 3110DNw an I have read somewhere that it should be left on all the time for Maintance reasons is this true or not Thanks BillyG

We have multiple Ricoh's and they are put to bed each night and woken up when needed. Even after a three week shut down last year then they worked perfectly when woken from their slumber.

We've found with ours that if switched off for a period of time it does a cleaning cycle every time it is powered up. If left switched on, although it wakes up periodically, it runs a cleaning cycle much less frequently. If you use Sawgrass ink I'd guess that the ink saved pays for the standby electricity consumed many times over...

If you do a few prints a week then turn it off, if you use it everyday then I would recommend leaving it on.

I suppose it all depends on the amount of use, I leave mine on unless I go on holiday, but then it works quite hard everyday of the week.

we leave ours on all the time. used about 4 days a week. think we avoid startup cleaning cycles, so save on ink, but not that sure .....

I thank you all I will just leave it on. Sure does make A lot of noise when printing. BillyG
