Ricoh and Konica Minolta Implement Global Price Hikes for Original Supplies

Effective April 1, 2026, Ricoh and Konica Minolta have announced simultaneous global price increases for their original consumables and accessories.

Konica Minolta will raise prices by 6% to 10% for toners, developer and fixing units, with the highest impact on consumables. Ricoh will increase printing controllers, core components and software by 5% to 6%.

The price hikes are primarily driven by rising costs of raw materials, energy and logistics. This move may further boost demand for high-quality compatible alternatives in the global market.
