There are a few reasons why the colors might not be lining up when printing a color test page or colored form on your Ricoh SP C250DN printer.
The printer cartridges may be low or empty. Make sure that all of the printer cartridges are properly inserted and that the ink levels are not low. You can check the ink levels by looking at the printer's display or by opening the printer and checking the cartridges themselves.
The printer may need to be cleaned. Over time, dust and debris can build up inside the printer and cause the colors to not line up properly. You can clean the printer by following the instructions in the printer's manual.
The printer may be misaligned. The printer's print heads may be misaligned, which can cause the colors to not line up properly. You can align the printer's print heads by following the instructions in the printer's manual.
The printer driver may be outdated. The printer driver is the software that allows your computer to communicate with the printer. If the printer driver is outdated, it can cause problems with printing, including the colors not lining up properly. You can update the printer driver by going to the manufacturer's website and downloading the latest version.
If you have tried all of these things and the colors are still not lining up, you may need to contact Ricoh customer support for assistance.
Here are some additional things to keep in mind:
The paper you are using may not be compatible with the printer. Make sure that you are using paper that is designed for laser printers.
The printer may be in need of maintenance. If the printer is old or has been used heavily, it may need to be serviced by a qualified technician.
I hope this helps!

Often, performing the automatic color registration adjustment will fix any problems with colors not lining up. See "Adjusting the Color Registration" on page 60 of the maintenance guide for instructions on how to perform color registration:
