Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Printer App at 4.2 against RICOH Printer's 1.0. Printer App also leads on ratings volume (118 vs 7) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months). RICOH Printer's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
