About this deal
This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
**EDIT 03/05/23 - This printer has now dropped in price and with code is now £186.66 but showing as backorder to be posted in 8-9 days
I have contacted them to ask about honouring the new price for my order so will add a note based on their responce for anyone who has already ordered.
Short answer seems to be no, return it and re-order**
Having just done this myself deciding to get a Colour Laser Printer.
Printer is a Colour Laser Printer with Auto Double Sided printing & wireless printing
Comes with the 4 toner cartridges with up to 1000 pages (which is 5% coverage per page I found which is defined by the ISO standard)
Vikings sells the set of 4 toner cartridges (same as comes with printer) from £186 so the printer is only a extra £11 in this case but to my knowledge you can use 3rd party cartridges in the future once the includes ones are used up.
For this deal you need to make a new account as a business account, seems no checks as my business name on there is just my name.
They also let you link a Nectar card and give a bonus 1000 points on first purchase and also have double points until 30th of April giving 1397 points on purchase equating to £6.97 in Nectar points.
Topcashback also has Viking new customer rate of 12.75% which would be £24.73 in cashback (it logged as £194 spent on my TCB) though as using code in purchase don't take this as guaranteed.
Next best price I have found for this is £222.90 at cartridgepeople.com which has only 0.85% cashback on TCB for printers and no Nectar deal

This is a great printer. If you don't need colour, buy the mono one.
I bought the absolute bottom range Brother mono laser printer for my Mum 5 years ago. She still likes to print out emails and the like. It's had 1 toner change. It's been 100% faultless where every other piece of technology she owns seems to requires weekly calls...
If in reference to the other price, that is the lowest I could find elsewhere to show the true saving

Both faultless!
Using 3rd party top-up toner and it works great.
My other Canon and HP ink ones ended up in the bin a few years after purchase.
Highly recommend Brother laser printers.
Mainly need mono, however colour can be useful.
Is there a big difference in price for respective toner cartridges?
Any advice would be appreciated.
TIA
It seems official cartridges are about £30-£40 each for up to 1k pages ones but someone shared a link f9rb3rd party cartridges for £33 for all 4
the cartridges need to be replaced?
Thanks.
- 3270 has a colour display, 3230 has a mono display
- 3270 has a little more wireless print ability, it allows something called Brother's Cloud Apps which apparently allows direct printing from things like Dropbox and social media sites

I forgot to add Viking said their ‘Tracing Team’ would contact me urgently and within 24 hours. That was 2 days ago. Still haven’t heard from them. Come to think of it I would say it is worrying that they actually have a ‘Tracing Team’… (edited)
When asked about the order status, customer services gave a scripted "on backorder" reply and that someone from "the team" will get back regarding order. Liars as they don't keep any stock and just dropshipping items after taking your money!
First time ordered from Viking Direct, never again. (edited)
Forgot to add the double nectar points promotion but tcb has tracked as 0.00 with a £194 spend
cheers.
Seems it is delayed, didn't bot notice that before

I couldn't find the different between this and the 2370 when I was looking before I posted this which I why I went with this one.
I would...especially since your still waiting delivery (edited)
"Thank you, unfortunately as our prices on the website are subject to change I am unable to amend the prices"
I have not yet received my order, so could refuse delivery and re order at lower price (on a new account)
Makes sense on both parties sides to honour the reduce price if someone contacts regarding
EDIT: They have asked for my email to pass it to a manager to look over
EDIT2: Manager just said the same, disregarded my own comments and then also ignored my reply email (edited)
