Rated for 3500 hours, 308991 is also listed by Ricoh as LampType9, and as a bare bulb it's designed to go back into your current housing rather than arrive with a new one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith six compatible models sharing this single lamp position, 308991 covers both the N and non-N variants of the WX3340 and X3340 lines, plus the WX4240N and X4240N. LampType9 is simply Ricoh's alternative name for the same part, so either code confirms you're ordering correctly.
