ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Printer App holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Printer App has 8.7K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of RICOH Device Manager NX's written reviews are positive against 82% of Printer App's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

RICOH Device Manager NX ships an update every 7 months, Printer App every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
