Buy a replacement ink collection unit for the sublimation printer Ricoh 3110DN #1847

I believe an new ink collection unit is required for the Ricoh 3110DN sublimation printer.

The printer provided an error message and refused to print today (Friday 28-7-23). It stated the ink collection unit was full. I was able to temporarily resolve the issue by swapping out the very full ink collection unit in the current printer with an old partially full ink collection unit I found in an out of use Ricoh Printer under the desk. But this collection unit is also very full and I suspect it will soon show the same problem.

I believe this is the unit required. https://www.printerbase.co.uk/ricoh-405783-gel-collector-unit.html It may be possible to find a cheaper supplier.

(P.S. first time using git hub and I cant work out how to attach a label. Sorry)

Ordered from https://tonerinkonline.co.uk as slightly cheaper. Also ordered one for the Phaser. Total cost £76.76

Both have arrived - they're in the cupboard with the A4 paper

Thank you, I will be back in later this month and see if it needs changing immediately or has a few more prints in it.
