Printer + Scanner + Photocopier - all less than £50!

I already have a Hewlett Packard all-in-one unit (inkjet printer, scanner and photocopier) which I paid just over £100 for a year or so ago, which seemed like quite a bargain at the time.
But, Comet now appear to have gone one better with a Brother all-in-one (model number: DCP120CU1) for less than £50 - and that includes 'standard' delivery (5 - 7 days) for free, and you can also choose the delivery date! :T (you're not able to specify am/pm though)
As I needed a spare printer for my OH's PC, I have gone ahead and ordered one, as you can't really go wrong at that price.
Direct link to item is shown below:

I just hope that somebody else might find this useful! (I'm not sure, but it's possible this may also be available instore as well as via https://www.comet.co.uk)
(PS: Ebuyer.com have the same unit for £97.52 delivered, so the Comet deal represents a significant saving.)
(PPS: Before anyone asks, no, I don't work for Comet. In fact I'm almost loathed to buy from them after a bad experience a year or two ago with a freezer, but when the price is right even I'm willing to forgive past misdemeanours.)

I forgot to mention . . .
Whatever you do - DO NOT add the £11.99 USB cable to your order, as this is a complete rip-off! :mad:
If you don't already have a suitable USB cable to connect a printer to your PC then you can pick up a relatively cheap USB cable from Ebuyer.com for 70p (incl. VAT) although with P&P it will end up costing £3.28 (if you go for Super Saver delivery):

Does anybody know how these compare to others of a similar price from other shops?
Can the ink cartridges be refilled? Or are they cheap to buy?0 -
Ordered! I was looking at the cheap crappie Canon photocopier at £130! Bonus, especially as it works without a PC (cos I'm sure the printings not great - lol)0

Thanks for the info, just placed my order.0

Thanks for the info. I've just ordered one - although the delivery dates offered were w/b the 20th!!! So, bit of a wait for it to arrive.
A search on ebay brought up details of compatible ink cartridges being sold @ any 4 for £7.99 plus £2.99 postage. This looks a bargain compared to the prices for the Brother original cartridges. There are a number of listings, all by the same seller - for example see item number: 6856053013.0 -
Does any1 know how much ink is for these though, as a mate of mine says the cheaper the printer, usually the dearer theink (£30 a cartridge he says it can be!!!!)
any1 any ideas b4 i buy one of these?
Cheers

Sorry I am not an expert with printers. It says that the printer has 6 colours, does that mean it has 6 cartridges?
ThanksIt costs nothing to be nice...:)
