SOURCE: adding developer to the new ricoh aficio mp 1500
Are you a tech? I suspect not. You need to remove the drum unit, disassemble, separate the drum from the development unit. Remove cover of developer unit, add developer, reassemble, and run SP2214 to calibrate.
This is NOT a procedure to be performed by an end user...no disrespect intended.
SOURCE: My Ricoh Aficio MP 161 said to add toner but still won't copy
Check your old toner bottle and make sure the plastic "cap" is still in the bottle. These machines have an occaisional problem with the caps coming off (not the black screw off cap but the semi clear cap under the black screw off cap) and staying inside the black plastic "cup" that you insert the toner into. If the cap is missing it may be stuck inside this cup. If the cap is still in your old cartridge then try opening/closing the front door and letting the machine cycle to see if the toner light goes out. May have to do this several times. Had one customer just yesrday have to do this to clear the toner light after adding toner.
Good Luck.

Toner supply is controlled with readings from TD sensor on the developing unit
and the I.D sensor above the drum by default.
These are low cost parts and easy to change.
(The TD sensor on this model have been known to fluctuate back and forth
by a fair margin so is a good place to start).
You could also try stripping down and cleaning out the toner hopper.
Check the four mylars are present and the grabber is opening wide enough
to grab the toner bottle nozzle successfully.
Check the toner hopper exit slider is opening fully when the PCU is
inserted.
I had one of these 'add toner' faults today and it was the toner hopper
all clogged up inside.
The side bit where the toner drops down had hardened clumps of toner
stuck around the side entrance mylar and the exit hole.
Check also the toner motor. I have seen these fail. Run
simulation output check for toner motor. I would remove the toner supply
unit and hold the motor when you run this simulation. Sometimes the motor
turns but does not have enough torgue to turn the toner supply unit.
SOURCE: how to print envelopes aficio ricio mp c4500
On an MP-C4500, envelopes must be printed using the bypass tray (the fold-out tray on the right hand side). Put the envelope in face-down and tighten the two fences so the envelope is snug.
When printing the envelope, make sure the print driver is set for the correct envelope size. If envelopes tend to jam in the printer, try setting the bypass paper type for thick paper.
