Is this the right printer for you?
Who the Lanier MP C4504 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 workgroup or department of 20-40 people printing 8,000-20,000 pages a month with regular A3 color and heavy scanning.
You want the 10.1" Android Smart Operation Panel and the Workstyle app set on the Intel-based controller.
You scan 200+ duplex pages a day and need the 220-sheet single-pass duplex feeder at 180 ipm standard.
You need SRA3 / 12.6" x 17.7" support for in-house full-bleed graphics work via the optional SRA3 unit and banner-print capability.
Works fine
You'll be happy if...
You print 20,000-30,000 pages a month — engine handles it but the C5504 has the same footprint at 55 ppm.
You want wireless out of the box — Wi-Fi is an optional interface, not standard.
You're replacing an MP C4503 — operators adapt to the 10.1" Smart Operation Panel in a few days; the rest of the workflow is the same.
You need finishing — 1,000-sheet hybrid finisher (the staple-less option is unique to this generation), booklet finishers, 3,000-sheet finisher all bolt on.
Look elsewhere
Skip this if...
You print under 5,000 pages a month — overbuilt; a desktop A4 unit (C406/C407) costs less to run.
Your color volume is essentially zero — get a mono A3 MFP for half the per-page cost.
You're looking for a brand-new unit with full warranty — discontinued in 2020-21, sold refurbished or off-lease.
You don't have a Ricoh or Lanier dealer relationship — supplies and Smart Operation Panel firmware ship through authorized channels.
Your office is on 220-240V — the SP variant is 120V; the exSP is 220-240V. Verify before specifying.
Full specifications
Every spec, no guessing
The Lanier MP C4504 is an A3 (11x17) color laser MFP built for workgroups of 20-40 users printing 8,000-20,000 pages a month with regular tabloid color. It prints and copies 45 ppm in both black and color from two 550-sheet drawers plus a 100-sheet bypass (1,200 sheets standard, expandable to 4,700 with the Tandem LCT and Side LCT). The current-generation 10.1-inch Wide Super VGA Smart Operation Panel runs Ricoh's Workstyle Innovation app set on an Intel processor — drag-and-drop, pinch-to-zoom, downloadable apps from the Ricoh Application Site, and the Human Detection Sensor that wakes the unit as users approach. First-copy-out is 4 seconds black / 5.7 seconds color at 1200 x 1200 dpi. The 220-sheet single-pass duplex feeder (SPDF) is standard, scanning at 110 ipm simplex / 180 ipm duplex. Standard connectivity is Gigabit Ethernet, USB 2.0, and SD card; AirPrint is built in, with Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/NFC optional. Optional 1,000-sheet hybrid finisher (with staple-less stapling — unique to this generation), booklet finishers, and a 3,000-sheet finisher cover most workflows. The thing buyers regret: assuming the firmware track stays current — Ricoh moved on to the IM C series, so SOP firmware updates on the C4504 will eventually plateau. We sell C4504 units to mid-size legal, healthcare, and education customers who want the current Smart Operation Panel and SRA3 support on a 228-lb chassis.
Three ways to get this printer, each priced to match how you actually use it. Most
small offices lease because toner and maintenance are bundled. If you know what you need, buy
outright. If you already own one, just reorder supplies.
Final lease rate depends on term length, credit profile, and bundled supplies. Outright purchase and
supplies pricing varies with bundled warranty, install packages, and order volume. Request a quote for
exact pricing.
