Deals on Multi Function Laser Printer / Scanner

I don't see any newer deal posting of Laser printer or Multi Functions printers.

I wonder if deals are hard to come buy or if printers are not popular anymore

I am looking for a laser multi function printer for around $200 with availability of after market cartridges

    I'm the same. I've been thinking about the Brother MFC-L2710DW which is around that price but haven't pushed the button yet.

  • Get a Brother MFC-J4620DW.

    OR a Brother MFC-J6920DW for heavier printing.

    You can easily source refillable cartridges for them.

    Both can be found very cheap second-hand on Gumtree/Facebook.

        You're right - I got distracted by his first statement.

    Pickup a second hand one off ebay / facebook market place for $20-$50. See which one has cheap toner. Most of the HP home laser printers have a toner/drum cartridge which can be refilled a few times but for $10-$15 a toner, i dont bother. If you get streaky lines, change the cartridge. Also, stick to the big brands - lots of availability too.

  • Thank you everyone for the feedback. I read in a US deal forum that it was much harder to use after market toner cartridges for the new model Brother printers as they have some kind of microchip to validate the toners. Is that true?

    I know there are workarounds but how easy are the workarounds. (I had an older Epson inkjet few years ago and I had to flash the firmware to make the ebay inkjet cartridges work and it was not easy at all as I spent a lot of time time to figure it out)

      It would have been perfect if it also had wifi

      • Yeah, that were my thoughts as well
