BB: Brother DCP-7020 $149.99 or less

[shopper-X]

I've missed a few Multi-function Laser printers deals and I came across this one. I wanted one with a Colour Scanner as apposed to just monochrome scanning.
I know this is Warm as Costco had this one recently for $139.99 after a $100 rebate (Rebate after tax on $239.99).

Best Buy has the Brother DCP-7020 on for $149.99.



However, Staples has it for $229.99 (or $237.99 in area's where there is a $8.00 Enviro fee)

Doing a price match with Staples makes it:
$141.99 =$149.99 - (($229.99-$149.99)*0.10)

I called Staples Online and they wanted to Price Match it with the Next Day shipping of $63.10 from Best Buy, so I'm going to try instore.

Staples also sells a Refurbished model for $129.88 (or $137.88 with $8.00 Enviro Fee)

I got this printer in 2006 Boxing day for $100 after rebate. Works fine so far.

got mine for $130 last year, no problems at all, with 600 pages clocked on the starter toner

Bought the Brother 7020 from Coscto 4 months ago for, as you had mentioned, $139.99 It's a great all-in-one. Warm-up time is super fast and I'm still on my starter cartridge. I bought the Asus-520 router w/ printer sharing from Infonec (Toronto) and hope to use it as a stand alone print server for our home wireless network.

I highly recommend this printer for getting your black and white printing needs done in a flash!

Is it possible to refill the toner?
What are cartridge replacements like??

The toner is the Brother TN-350. The starter cartridge does not come with a Reset Flag Gear needed to refill. However You can buy the toner and Reset Flag Gear from www.tonerkits.com but there is a whole Toner Refill thread on that.
I think I did find where to put the Reset Gear if you look on page 3 of this PDF file (top right side of drawing).
HL2040 Europe (aka TN-350 North America)

I have this printer, and I just refilled the starter cartridge last week. The reset gear came with the toner refill kit that I ordered on ebay, and the process of refilling it was really easy. With shipping, the refill kit cost me $26 (2 refills)

I found this (link) one on ebay for around the $26USD ($11.99 kit + $13.99 s/h ) mark shipped from Canada.
Refill Pak Includes:
2 - 90g black toner refills
1 - Reset Gear
1 - pouring spouts w/cap
1 - set illustrated instructions

To compare to www.tonerkits.com, you would need 2 kits @ $7.99 each + 1 reset gear @ 3.99 + $5.95 s/h for a total of $25.32USD.
The only extra with Tonerkits is you get an extra pouring spouts w/caps and extra set illustrated instructions (since you bought 2 kits). However Tonerkits does not show where the reset gear goes.

The reset gear is available for customers who want to use their starter cartridges right away but it does not come with any installation instructions.

Does the scanning works through the router? I thought these print server only works on printing.

No it does not. I bought this printer this year @ BB and have it connected to my DLINK print server. Whenever I need to use the scanner I disconnect it from the server and connect to a USB port on the computer. It was the only way I could have a network printer -- and sometimes use the scanner function.
