yes and fixed.
Good price on the printer, mine is due to run out soon (already applied the tape fix). I'll pick one up on the way to work today.
what is the tape fix?
thanks
Is this at all Hardly Normals or your own local?
You are aware HN were recently fined $750k for dodgy catalogue practices, i.e. putting a cheap price in their mailed catalogues but fine print stated this price was only applicable at a small number of stores (one store per state), and putting a cheap price in their online catalogues, but it only applying to one store in the country (I think it was Auburn NSW) ?
One would hope they are no longer doing that …
Auburn near my house. alright =D
I was in Domayne Bundall yesterday having a look while waiting for the bus, and they had some $19 printers there, ran out of time to get a picture, HP 1000/2000 or something, was a whole pile of them.
Aswell as free Optus $2 sims.
how is $2 free?
he means an Optus sim worth $2 but you can get for free. Pretty sure u will need photo ID though. Won't be able to get a whole bunch of them lol.
Didn't need any I'd or other purchase :) I will go back tomorrow if I have time.
must be giving them away, hence free, I guess!
$2 is just the descriptin.
HN advertising is really inflated to make it look 'exclusive'. HN stores in WA have had the three pack SanDisk for $12 since last week at least. Still, a good price all the same. Another good price (IMO) are the Toshiba 8GB USB's for $9 each.
YES, or Verbatim 16GB USB at Kmart for $13.
Is that still on sale? Couldn't find anywhere with stock even on day 1 and gave up….
Big W have Lexar 8Gb sticks for $8.74 starting today I think. 4Gb are $5
Yes, was bought from Broadway Sydney. Am sure they would order more in.
Is ink for this printer cheap?
You don't buy ink, you buy another printer :)
You don't buy ink, you buy another printer :)
Just saying, I buy Ink online from inkstation etc. for my brother 2140, buy a triple-pack and it saves a fortune. As long as you don't buy OEM, its still cheaper to keep your printer, and lets face it, it's ridiculous to buy a printer every time + they give you half empty cartridges anyway.
i got 2.5 years out of a brother 2140 for $88 so just bought a new one 2142 and its been going for prob another couple of years
is it worth getting just for the toner?
Toner is almost $70 for one at Officeworks.
Yes, I would get several printers instead :)
How much toner does the cartridge have ?
50% ? 60% ? 70% ?
Still a very good deal as you get a spare printer ;)Here's a link to where I buy my ink, http://www.inkstation.com.au/3pack-brother-tn2030-compatible…
$119 for 3, ie. 7600 pages, or 11 times the quantity given in the printer (printers only come with a near empty tank at 700 pages so they can get more money off you)
When you do the math, that is a hell of a lot cheaper than buying new.Enter discount code 20130 for an extra 20% off, putting the price down to a $100 for 7600 pages, or 1 cent a page.
What about getting something like this http://www.tonerstop.com.au/Brother-HL-2130-Toner-Cartridge-… ? Toner refill?
They are a bi!@#$ to deal with Purt, I prefer just paying the little bit extra
to get the whole cartridge rather than having to shake toner all over the place into
a drum. Also you then need to reset toner etc. basically a pain in the !@#$
First it was $44, then it's $42; now ladies and gents it's $37.94, the new low.

But! If OW wasn't so sneaky and just changed it to 37.94 and left it at 42, we could have pricematched for $36.10. Sneaky OW on OZB. =}
I just bought from OW last night for $42. Still in the box. Value dropped by 10% in one day.. not even open the box yet :(
return it then buy back :)
it happened before with the A501 & A500 on the Good Guys super awesome pricing.
Yeah, may be Scooty can block IP address from Office work so they cant change price to fast huahaha
Thanks for posting that. I ended up ordering it from OW (only because I get the 5% off Coles discount) :D
Does the printer come with a full sized toner?
No it doesn't. It can print at most 700 pages.
Reference? Feels like mine (different model, same entry level though) has done well over 700 pages on it's toner.
Official Brother Australia brochure notes 700 pages for included toner cartridge.

Approximate Starter Page Yield: 500 Pages

probably hit bit more with tape 800?
Pretty much all really cheap laser and LED printers come with half filled cartridges, otherwise you might be tempted to throw away the printer and buy another when the cartridge runs out. Ruins the OEM's business model.
I bought a (back then) cheap Samsung ML-1640 printer that has just run out of toner at the 800 page mark. OEM 1500 page toner? $80. Third party 1500 page toner off eBay including postage? $30. Print quality looks the same with the cheap cartridge.
btw i left 1 on shelf at HN auburn didnt broden
Feedbacks on the net says it's noisy. Is it really?
you have to find a deal for ear buds if you plan to print whole day otherwise it should be fine
Just got one, the ink cartridge cost more than the printer. Good price for the printer though.
Went into Hobart HN yesterday after seeing the $42 post. They had sold out but were getting another 6 in. They offered to hold one of the ones coming in for me at the $42 price. I called to check if it had arrived today. It hadn't but as I had just seen this post, I asked that they alter the reserved price to $38. They were more than happy to do that and expect it in on Monday. Not bad attitude I thought :)
Thanks guys!PS as per the info on the $42 priced post, OW have the HL2132 not the HL2130 which is apparently exactly the same item, but as the model number is different they will not price match. They do not stock the HL2130 as they confirmed today when I tried to beat them down to the $38 price (less 5%) as they had in stock :
Hence they overcome the price war issue. Since then they have dropped the price as mentioned here. Rats.Not a LASER so maybe off topic but…. HN Browns Plains Qld had the HP Photosmart C310 for $95 last time I was in there. Absolute bargain for what it is. Usually about $170. I have one and love it (of course I paid about $170 from OW about 4 months ago).
New low for ozbargainers close to North Parramatta: the HL-2130 can be picked up from this ebay seller for $33, with 6 available at time of posting.
