  I think they have these every 6 months. Good for those who need a priter.

    It's not part of this promotion but the MFC-L2740DW is what you're after.

    Has a low duty cycle but enough for home usage and the generic toners are cheap.

    With 5% price match at Officeworks you should get it for under $230…although they won't always match certain stores but it all depends on who you ask at the store.

    Good luck.

    "For information regarding participating and authorised resellers, please contact the cash back customer service team on 1300 761 785 or e-mail [email protected]"

    They've specifically excluded Officeworks as one, probably due to their price matching policy.

  In the same boat, looking for a cheap duplex scanner to scan a stack of old documents. Unfortunately many look to be beyond what I'm willing to pay (>$200), even with this promotion. Interesting how duplex printers can be gotten so cheap, but not duplex scanners…

  Have thought about just getting a cheapie single sided ADF scanner (have seen them <$50 on special), manually scanning both sides and writing a script to weave the pages together.
  Currently just abusing the office scanner at work (which is quite nice, supporting duplex A3 and only takes ~2 seconds per page to scan), but would prefer to have something at home to avoid having to cart around stacks of paper and hogging shared facilities.

    If you use a 1 sided scanner use PDFSAM and these instructions http://www.pdfsam.org/wiki/howto-mix-pdf/ by default it does 1 page stepping with reverse order on the second document (as if you were using a document feeder, untick the reverse if not)

      Nice!
      Saves me writing a script if I go that route :)

    Yeah so far the best around my price range is probably this unit:

    brother ads-1600w. Unfortunately no cash back but it ticks all the boxes, wifi, duplex scan, ocr, etc

      That does indeed look like a nice scanner. Too bad about the price though.

      Interesting that the all-in-ones would be cheaper, but bulkier (this matters a bit for me) and much slower scan speeds, though I don't mind just letting it run in the background.

  ALMOST needed a new printer but my old Cannon came good in the end. But a TIP…before buying a printer check the price/availability to you of aftermarket ink, ink is the biggest cost of ownership.

    Thats why I choose brother usually (with friends and family when asked), about $10 max for 4 ink for mine, replace maybe once every few months, I swear some of the aftermarkets have more ink. Also Brothers have 4 separate tanks unlike some still with the old 1 black, 1 colour BS
