How to Install Ricoh Printer Driver on Mac: 2026 Step-by-Step Guide

Setting up your Ricoh photocopier on a MacBook can be tricky due to macOS security updates. Whether you are using the latest macOS or an older version, follow this 2026 updated guide from Copier World to get your office printing in minutes.

Step 1: Download the Correct Ricoh Driver

Don’t use generic drivers. Always download the official software:

1. Visit the official Ricoh Support Page.
2. Search for your specific model (e.g., Ricoh IM C3500 or MP C3504).
3. Select macOS as your operating system and download the PPD Installer.

Step 2: Install the Driver Package

1. Open the downloaded .dmg file.
2. Run the .pkg installer.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions and enter your Mac password when prompted.

Step 3: Add the Printer in System Settings

1. Go to System Settings > Printers & Scanners.
2. Click the [+] Add Printer, Scanner, or Fax… button.
3. Select the IP tab (Globe icon).
4. Address: Enter the IP address of your Ricoh machine (e.g., 192.168.1.100).
5. Protocol: Select Line Printer Daemon – LPD.
6. Use: Click “Select Software” and choose the Ricoh model you just installed.

Step 4: Configure Finishing Options (Important)

Once added, click Options & Supplies. Under the Options tab, make sure to check if your machine has a finisher or extra paper trays. This ensures you can use features like stapling or A3 printing correctly.

Step 5: Setting Up User Codes (If Applicable)

If your office uses User Codes to track printing:

1. Open any document and press Cmd + P.
2. In the print dialog, find the Job Log menu.
3. Enter your assigned code in the User Code box.
4. Save this as a Preset so you don’t have to type it every time.

Troubleshooting Tips for Malaysia Users

If your Mac still won’t print, ensure your MacBook and the Ricoh copier are on the same Wi-Fi network. If you are in KL or Selangor and need on-site assistance, the Copier World technical team is just a call away.
