Ricoh’s MP 3503/MP 3504 family of color laser multifunction printers (MFP) has OEM-rated print speeds from 30 to 35 letter-size pages per minute (ppm) for both color and black-and-white printing, with duty cycles for all models OEM-stated at 80,000 letter-size pages per month. All four models are also sold under the brand names Lanier® and Savin®.
The supplies set for the family is made up of four tube-style toner cartridges and a waste toner container, with four drum units and four developer units that are not user-replaceable. OEM-stated page yields for replacement toner cartridges are up to 29,500 pages for black and 18,000 pages for colors while the waste toner collection unit holds up to 100,000 pages worth of waste materials. The drum units yield 400,000 pages (black) and 175,000 pages each for cyan, magenta and yellow. Developer units yield 600,000 pages (black) and 160,000 pages each for cyan, magenta and yellow. All yields are based on letter-size pages.
All models in this family ship without supplies, and all toner cartridges require a chip for correct printer operation.
