"Deal of the day" - I love Amazon but they are becoming a bit like DFS for their sales tactics..

Was £50.77 for 10 days last month. http://uk.camelcamelcamel.com/Ricoh-C250DN-Wireless-Colour-Printer/product/B00K2J7ZOS

Whilst probably still the cheapest right now, i've not voted either way. It looks like £89.99 was the average price for this on amazon so only really a £10 reduction.

Go careful when reading amazon reviews. The top reviews I read about this product were "vine" reviews. I am sure if the printer was free it would be easier to give a 5 star review. The non vine reviews are more of a mix but generally ok so still a good deal for £79.99. That being said paying £277 would be steep for an wireless A4 colour laser. In my opinion this printers RRP should be around £150-£180, £200 tops. Heat added.

I have this printer, it's massive! Be warned. I've had no problems with it but I don't print much, just the odd boarding pass. It can't print on card that's too thick. That jammed it up pretty good. Duplex is handy :smiley:. Also it doesn't support 'air print' (for apple products). You have to use an app which is somewhat dodgy when printing word docs (things like the font came out massive, looked ridiculous. PDF's and photos print perfectly). If you want to print a web page you need to navigate to it within the app (not ideal). Laptops and computers can use the printer like normal.

Couldn't agree more. The no of 5 star reviews given by folks 'sent this item free/ at a discounted price for a fair and unbiased review' is staggering. For many items, if you filter for 'verified purchases only' the no. of reviews is very, very small. I don't trust Amazon reviews anymore.

I would say indifferent reviews but heat for the price!

Supports duplex, that's impressive at this price point. There don't seem to be any 3rd party toners though and I believe the toners are chipped too so replacement could prove costly. Overall it's gets a hot from me.

Toner refills and chip replacements are available on Ebay cheaply from about £32 for a set

A second-hand HP colour laser for £60 is a better bet in my view

can only see a full set of toners for £120 or refill kit for £79 off ebay?

Where did you find this?

When I look at today's deal of the day I see three items - a mattress, a book and some earrings, no mention of this printer!
