Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Lanier IM C2000 is actually for

Most printer pages just tell you what a printer 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 sell a lot of these for a reason, but the reason is not "every office."

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • You run a small business or workgroup of 5-15 people that needs A3 (11x17) color in-house at a low monthly volume.
  • You print 800-3,000 pages a month — the IM C2000 is the entry point in the IM C-series and sits well in this range.
  • You want one machine that does color print, copy, scan, fax up to tabloid without paying for the 30-ppm or 45-ppm tier.
  • You want the 10.1-inch Smart Operation Panel (same as the IM C3000/C4500/C6000) so users can run Always Current Technology apps and scan-to-email out of the box.
  • You'll occasionally print on 12x18 stock (covers, oversized flyers) — supported via bypass.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print 3,000-6,000 pages a month — the engine handles it, you're just amortizing a 40,000-page duty-cycle MFP over a smaller monthly footprint.
  • You want a single-pass duplex ADF — the standard ADF is reversing (ARDF, 100 sheets); the SPDF is an optional swap if you scan two-sided originals heavily.
  • You need wireless — Wi-Fi and NFC are optional accessories, not standard.
  • You're replacing a Ricoh MP C300 or MP C401 — operators move over fast, panel and workflow are the same family.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You print over 6,000 pages a month consistently — you'll outpace the toner economics here. Step up to the IM C3000 (30 ppm, 80,000-page duty cycle) for the same chassis at higher volume.
  • You need fast color throughput — 20 ppm is the slowest tier in the IM C-series. If your job mix is color-heavy and time-sensitive, the IM C3000 or higher is the right pick.
  • You only print mono — you're paying for a color engine and color toner you don't need. The IM 350F or IM 430F mono A4 is cheaper.
  • You don't have an A3 use case — the C2000 is built around tabloid color. If 8.5x11/8.5x14 is all you ever need, an A4 color MFP is half the footprint.
  • You don't have a Lanier/Ricoh dealer — supplies and firmware ship through dealer channels.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Lanier IM C2000 is the entry-level model in the Lanier IM C-series — a floor-standing A3 color laser multifunction (print, copy, scan, fax) for small workgroups of 5-15 people that need 11x17 color in-house but don't run high monthly volume. It prints and copies at 20 ppm in both black and color, scans through a 100-sheet reversing ARDF (single-pass duplex SPDF is optional), and ships with two 550-sheet trays for 1,100 sheets standard, expandable to 2,300. Print resolution is up to 1200 x 1200 dpi, first copy is 5.1 seconds black and 7.4 seconds color. The 10.1-inch Smart Operation Panel runs the same Always Current Technology apps as the bigger IM C-series, so scan-to-email, scan-to-folder, FTP, internet fax, and USB are standard. Connectivity is Gigabit Ethernet and USB 2.0; Wi-Fi and NFC are optional. Monthly duty cycle is 40,000 pages — the unit will hit it but recommended volume is lower. The thing buyers regret: ordering the C2000 and outgrowing it within a year. If your color volume is climbing or you do color-heavy job mixes, jump straight to the IM C3000 (30 ppm, 80,000-page duty cycle) — same chassis, same panel, just more headroom.

Supplies & consumables

Toner, yields, and what to actually reorder

The #1 question we get on this printer is "which toner do I buy?" Short answer: you have two cartridge options and a drum. Standard yield TN830 covers roughly 1,200 pages. High yield TN830XL covers roughly 4,500 pages and is the better value for most offices. Pick XL unless you print very little.

The drum unit (DR810) is separate and usually lasts 15,000 to 30,000 pages before it needs replacing. At a typical small office volume, expect to change it once every 2 to 4 years.

If you lease this printer through us, toner and drum are included. You never pay for supplies separately. That's usually the better deal once you add up real costs over 3 years.

Yes. The MFC-L2759DW ships with a high-yield 4,500-page starter toner cartridge, which is roughly 3 to 6 months of toner for a typical small office. Replacement toner is Lanier TN830XL (high-yield, about 4,500 pages) or TN830 (standard yield, about 1,200 pages). When you lease through us with toner included, you never pay for toner separately.

The Lanier IM C2000 is the refreshed version of the MFC-L2750DW with updated firmware, a longer-life drum, and an expanded starter toner yield (4,500 pages versus 3,000). Print speed, automatic 2-sided print and scan, and connectivity are identical. For most small offices the 2759DW is the better long-term value because of the larger included toner.

Yes, for small offices printing under about 2,500 pages per month. It's fast at 36 ppm, handles auto 2-sided print and scan, supports Wi-Fi and Ethernet, and has a 50-page document feeder for multi-page scans. If you regularly print more than 5,000 pages per month or need color, step up to a commercial-grade multifunction printer — see our commercial printer options.

No. The MFC-L2759DW is monochrome (black and white) only. It cannot print color. If you need color, look at the Brother MFC-L3750CDW or a commercial color multifunction printer like the Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX or Konica Minolta bizhub series.

Lanier includes a 1-year limited manufacturer warranty on the MFC-L2759DW when purchased new from an authorized reseller. 1-800 Office Solutions is an authorized Lanier reseller. Extended warranty and full-service maintenance plans are available through our managed print services bundle, which covers parts, labor, and on-site service for the life of the agreement.

Yes. Free delivery is included on every Lanier IM C2000 order shipped within the continental United States. Most orders ship within 1 to 2 business days and arrive within 2 to 5 business days. Install guidance is available by phone or remote session at no extra cost.
