I am also struggling with this printer in Arch. I am using CUPS, it seems there is a PPD driver for this printer, but nothing works...

According to the following information, ricoh aficio sp c240dn only supports the DDST print driver of Windows and Mac OS.
So, it cannot work on Ubuntu because it does not support Linux OS.
