Spotted an in-store special on Saturday.
Best price for a multifunction A3 printer with wifi capabilities. Model number is MFC-J6510DW
Officeworks price is $274.
Not sure how long it's on sale for.

This machine is a step up from the MFC-J5910DW, as it offers an A3 scanner as well as a wide carriage printhead. Like the cheaper machine, it offers photo card and PictBridge sockets and this one has Brother's trademark wide-aspect LCD display, too. Both machines have the advantage of a wireless connection, and this one has Ethernet as well as USB. It prints at up to 9.1ppm and can produce a 15 x 10cm photo in 1:10. An A3 photo print took 3mins 38s, which is also very reasonable. Page costs are good at 1.1p for ISO black and 4.8p colour. Unfortunately, again, the print quality lets the machine down, producing plain paper prints which looks fuzzy and imprecise.
Now if I could find an A3 laser printer for a half reasonable price…
I bought this before christmas from office works for $198, if its not that now then you can price match against Harvey Norman's price.
Wireless works well, scanner is good, main issue I have is having to swap between A4/A3 as there is only one paper tray.
However, the models up (MFC-J6710DW or MFC-J6910DW) are at least $200-300 more with only a few improvements.
Its a good priced printer IMO.
Seems like delivery is extra and they only offer 12 months warranty at umart.
I have 24 months warranty on mine from officeworks. Paid $236 price matched so no point posting my receipt as HN deal is much better.
The warranty should be provided by the manufacture, which is listed as 24 months on brother's website.
Correct me if I am wrong if this doesn't hold.
