Just saw this yesterday at our local Coles (Erskine, WA). Not sure if it's nation-wide but here there were still about 6-8 on the shelves.
Decent printer w/wifi, too!

Lilydale VIC too. So there are definitely some around.
Cole's
Cole's printer may not be for sale.
Yep definitely, had a chat to Cole - doesn't want to sell it.
You know Cole…how the heck is he?
Think he's been a bit depressed, to be honest.
Said he was "down down" again.
Just saw this yesterday
Why the delaying posting?
HV and the GG have it for $33, so not exactly a bargain.
How easy is it to find a Coles vs Hardly Normal or GG? Just the saving in fuel will make it better.
Sure, but I am just saying there is nothing amazing about the price.
If I needed a cheap printer then it might be ok, but I am not going to buy it on the off chance I might need it at $29. Now if it was $19 I might think about it. At $15 highly likely. At $9, definitely.
its 10 per cent cheaper, plus if you got the vintage cellar coles gift cards from AMEX means another 15% off
Sir, you are free to make wishes but they may not come true!
Give it 2 more weeks and it will come down to $19!:P
It is if it's $4 cheaper
that's 4x $1 KFC chips!
Apt username lol
Sold out at Toombul
Don't forget to price replacement cartridges
cheaper to buy a new printer o.O
Stacks of these junk printers at all the coles around me, WA. Not really a bargain.
These small & relatively inexpensive printers are really very good. My last was a cheapo-HP which lasted 5 years w/three people printing to it over the network at home. This is also the cheapest price on this model so far, I believe?
As for the naysayers who believe that they ought to keep tossing printers into "our" landfills & polluting the planet because you have an issue with the price of ink— not sure what to say to that except it's a lousy idea. A better idea would be a letter-writing campaign or petition of complaint to the maker if you're actually upset.
For those who'd like your ink to go much further— here's what you do:
Assuming you're generally printing a B&W text document, after hitting "print", go into the printer's "properties" on that next screen & change the quality to "fast/draft/economy". It will be perfectly legible & will reduce your ink usage by 1/3- 1/2 from what you normally use. I only change cartridges maybe three times in a year & that's with my biz & two students at home using it.
FYI
:)
Got one today, Pretty nifty little printer. Won't ever use it though!
No cheap cartridge refills for this printer on ebay, will pass….
If you're that cheap, refill them yourself:

;)
Good one, I don't mind refilling if it works.
Don't need high quality.Have you tried refilling, I find it messy and not as reliable, but each to his own.
Yep, done it many times & no worries if you follow the steps… :)
Yes the replacement cartridges may be the deal breaker.
Was $20 delivered 10 months ago, no WIFI though if you need that.
Good information there.Wifi adds a considerable service, so to have it in a new model at only $9 more—- pretty nice deal.
As an aside for those who cry about ink- if you print in high volume (thousands)- you're best off with Officeworks, or etc.
