WIRELESS All-In-One Printer under £70

Staples have the Brother DCP-340CW for £69.99 as part of their Fathers Day Deals. I assume this is instore only as I saw it advertised in the paper today.

The spec is pretty good for the price (most websites are selling it for around £130 and Brothers website has it listed at £175). I got a DPC-310CN from Argos recently for £40 and I'm well pleased with it - this looks the same but wireless instead of wired. Assuming the ink catrdiges are the same as the DCP-310CN then they are cheap to get hold of too - see this thread.

Here's the spec - taken from Bother's website:

Up to 15ppm printing speed (colour)
Up to 20ppm printing speed (monochrome)
Up to 1200 x 6000dpi print resolution
Wired and wireless network ready
Up to 100 sheet paper capacity
Up to 10 sheet automatic document feeder
PC free copying
Up to 1200 x 1200dpi copy resolution
25 - 400% reduction/enlargement ratio in 1% increments
Scan to e-mail, image, OCR, file or card
Up to 600 x 2400dpi scan resolution (optical)
Up to 19,200dpi scan resolution (interpolated)
Print digital images directly from SmartMedia, Compact Flash, Memory Stick, Memory Stick Pro, Secure Digital, xD Picture Card and MultiMedia Card
Scan & Translate feature
One year on-site warranty (upon registration)

Thanks alot. Can you tell me which newspaper you spotted this in, as I couldn't see it in The Times.

Sounds like a great offer

looks a bit on the bulky side, does anybody know of any smaller wireless printers

If you want a laser printer you can buy a refurbished brother 2070n(network enable) from ebay - brotherUK for about the £50 mark plus £7.50 p+p. I won at £46 + postage. These retails at £155 new.

Size is 343 x 345 x 135 mm

Remember this has a scanner on top, hence the size. My DCP-310CN has virtually the same footprint as my old Epson C42 once you open up the paper tray - and the Epson has no scanner.

Sorry - don;t have the paper any more, but it's a Fathers Day Deal - so I would assume the deal is up to Saturday or Sunday. No voucher on the advert - just go and pick one up.

Thanks alot

One last thing, are you saying the bottom of your new printer is about the same as your old C42? Because I used to have that (I guess this priinter may be a bit bigger though?

It is bigger, but with paper in the feeder and the output tray extended, it takes up the same amount of space on my shelf.
