Paper Feed Unit PB1120 tray for Ricoh P 501 / P 501TL / IM 350F – 250-sheet paper feeder

Paper Feed Unit PB1120 tray for Ricoh P 501 / P 501TL / IM 350F – 250-sheet paper feeder is an OEM-compatible add-on tray designed to increase the paper capacity of Ricoh P 501, P 501TL and IM 350F devices. The unit accepts standard plain paper and integrates with the printer’s paper handling system to provide an additional 250 sheets, helping to reduce the frequency of manual refills during high-volume printing, copying and scanning tasks.

Advantages

This paper feed unit expands paper capacity by 250 sheets while maintaining compatibility with the device’s paper path and feed mechanism. It supports reliable plain-paper feeding, reduces interruptions in workflow, and is designed to match the physical fit and feeding behavior of Ricoh machines. Installation is straightforward and the tray helps maintain consistent print runs in busy office environments.

Suitable for

• Offices with moderate to high daily printing volumes
• Workgroups that require continuous printing, copying or scanning without frequent paper refills
• Environments where plain A4/A-sized paper is used for standard documents

When it may not be suitable

This 250-sheet tray is not intended to replace larger capacity feeding systems; organisations that need very large paper capacity may require additional or alternative feeding options. It is designed for plain-paper formats—specialty media such as heavy cardstock, envelopes or coated papers may not feed reliably through this tray.

Key specifications

• Additional paper capacity: 250 sheets
• Compatible paper type: plain paper
• Intended device models: Ricoh P 501, P 501TL, IM 350F
• Physical form: add-on paper tray for desktop MFP/printer

How to use

Install the paper feed unit into the designated slot or mounting area on the Ricoh device following the device’s physical alignment points. Load up to 250 sheets of plain paper, align paper guides to the paper size, and verify the printer settings to ensure the added tray is selected as a paper source. After installation, run a test print to confirm correct feeding and paper path alignment. Follow standard handling to avoid overfilling and to keep paper edges clean and dry for reliable operation.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm compatibility with your specific Ricoh model (P 501, P 501TL, IM 350F)
• Ensure your typical media are standard plain paper; check suitability for envelopes or heavy media separately
• Assess whether a 250-sheet increase meets your office throughput needs or if additional trays are required

Recommendations

Use the PB1120 tray primarily for standard plain paper to minimize feed errors. Keep paper stored in its original packaging until use to reduce moisture absorption. Periodically inspect and clean feed rollers according to the printer maintenance guide to maintain consistent performance.
