Why is my USB Stick not working? (Scan/Print)

Important

The RICOH Network printers supports FAT16 or FAT32 format USB flash memory. Other forms of removable memory device are not compatible.


  • Make sure that the format of the removable memory device is FAT16 or FAT32.

  • Saving might fail if the USB flash memory features password protection or other security features.

  • Connect only USB flash memory to the USB slot, not any other form of USB device.

  • Do not use a USB extension cable to connect a USB memory to the machine. Insert the USB memory directly into the media slot.

  • Do not remove the media while data is being written. Doing so will result in corrupted data.

  • Do not turn the machine's main power switch to off while data is being written. Doing so will result in corrupted data.

  • If the machine's main power is accidentally switched off while data is being written, you must check the data on your media for corruption when you switch the machine back on.

  • USB flash memory devices and SD cards are supported for direct printing. However, certain types of USB flash memory devices and SD cards cannot be used.
