Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Lanier MP C4504ex 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 an enterprise workgroup of 25-50 people printing 10,000-25,000 pages a month with regular A3 color and heavy scanning.
  • You want the 10.1" Smart Operation Panel with the extended firmware track — RemoteConnect Support and Automatic Remote Firmware Update.
  • You're standardizing on the ex generation across multiple international sites and need matched firmware behavior on the SOP.
  • You need SRA3 banner-print capability via the optional banner paper tray guide for in-house design work.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You scan 200-400 duplex pages a day — the standard 220-sheet SPDF handles it at 180 ipm duplex.
  • You print 25,000-35,000 pages a month — engine handles it but the C6004exSP steps up the speed without changing the footprint.
  • You're replacing an MP C4504 — same chassis, same operator workflow; ex unit just has the extended firmware support track.
  • You need NFC card auth — supported via the optional NFC Card Reader.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You print under 5,000 pages a month — overbuilt; a C407 desktop A4 unit costs less to run.
  • You don't need A3 — the C407 SPF covers letter/legal at the same Smart Operation Panel.
  • Your office is on 120V North American power — the ex variant ships 220-240V; verify electrical before specifying.
  • You're looking for a brand-new unit with full warranty — discontinued, sold refurbished or off-lease.
  • You don't have a Ricoh dealer relationship — supplies and ex-firmware updates ship through authorized channels.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Lanier MP C4504ex is the enterprise/extended-firmware variant of the C4504 — an A3 (11x17) color laser MFP built for enterprise workgroups of 25-50 users printing 10,000-25,000 pages a month. 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 10.1-inch Smart Operation Panel runs Ricoh's Workstyle Innovation app set on the Intel-based controller, with RemoteConnect Support and Automatic Remote Firmware Update on the ex track — what makes it the spec for multi-site enterprise rollouts where every unit needs to behave the same. 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 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. The thing buyers regret: not catching the 220-240V power requirement on the ex variant before installation in a North American site. We sell C4504ex units to multinational enterprise accounts standardizing across regions on the matched Smart Operation Panel firmware.
