Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Lanier MP 2852 is actually for

Most equipment pages just tell you what a device does. Here's the honest version: when this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We offer equipment for every business need, but the right machine depends on your specific workflow.

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • You run a small or mid office of 10-30 people printing 3,000-7,000 pages a month — the MP 2852 is the 28 ppm middle child of the MP 2352/2852/3352 family.
  • You need A3 (11x17) for occasional spreadsheets or larger documents — most work is letter-size.
  • You scan multi-page contracts and intake forms via the 100-sheet ARDF.
  • You want auto duplex on print, copy, and scan as standard.
  • You're standardizing on the MP 2352/2852/3352 family for shared toner and accessories.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print 7,000-10,000 pages monthly — within rated duty but consumables wear faster than ideal.
  • You want Wi-Fi but didn't budget for it — wireless is an optional accessory.
  • You expand to 2,300 sheets with optional trays — the chassis supports it.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You print under 2,000 pages a month — 28 ppm A3 is overkill. Get the MP 2501SP or MP 301SPF.
  • You need 1200 dpi resolution — this is 600 dpi only. Get the MP 2554/2555SP generation.
  • You need color — mono only.
  • You don't have 27.9 inches of vertical clearance and a 120V/12A circuit.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Lanier MP 2852 is the 28 ppm A3 mono laser MFP in the older Lanier MP 2352/2852/3352 family. It targets small and mid offices of 10-30 printing 3,000-7,000 pages a month. The chassis runs at 28 ppm at 600 dpi with a 4.5-second first-page-out, holds 1,100 sheets standard (expandable to 2,300), and is rated for 100,000 pages per month. The 100-sheet ARDF handles routine multi-page scans, and print/copy/scan/fax are all standard with auto duplex on print and scan. The 4.3-inch color LCD covers the basics — preset shortcuts, address book, scan/fax destinations — but lacks the Smart Operation Panel that ships with the newer MP 2554 generation. Connectivity is Gigabit Ethernet plus USB; Wi-Fi and NFC are optional. The chassis is 27.9 x 23.1 x 25.7 inches at 143 lb on a 120V/12A circuit. The thing buyers regret: not realizing how much UI changed in the next generation. If you're cross-shopping with the MP 2554, the older 2852 is fine but feels dated — operators trained on either platform notice the difference immediately.

The questions we get asked most often on this model. If yours isn't here, call (888) 574-5120 and get an answer in about 30 seconds.

Yes, the Lanier MP 2852 ships with a starter toner cartridge that yields approximately 11,000 pages at 5% coverage. The replacement toner model is Type 2120D (or part numbers 480-0068, 841337, 888169), which also provides a yield of 11,000 pages. When you lease through us with toner included, you never pay for toner separately.
The Lanier MP 2852 is an older A3 monochrome MFP with a 28 ppm print speed, a 4.3-inch LCD, and a 100,000-page monthly duty cycle, while the Lanier IM 430F is a newer A4 monochrome MFP with a faster 45 ppm print speed, a 10.1-inch Smart Operation Panel, and a 40,000-page monthly duty cycle. The IM 430F also features a 50-sheet single-pass duplex ADF and optional Wi-Fi, whereas the MP 2852 has a 100-sheet ARDF and lacks the Smart Operation Panel. For small offices, the IM 430F offers a more modern interface and faster performance.
The Lanier MP 2852 is suitable for small businesses printing 3,000-7,000 pages monthly, with a 28 ppm speed and a 100,000-page monthly duty cycle. However, it is a monochrome printer with an older interface, which may not meet the needs of businesses requiring color or advanced features.
No, the Lanier MP 2852 is a monochrome-only printer. For color printing, consider alternatives like the Lanier IM C300, Lanier IM C400, or Lanier IM C450.
