They're all part of the Coles Myer group. It seems that if there isn't a K-Mart close by, Coles with stock office supplies, including occasional computer gear - keyboards, printers, supplies etc. Otherwise K-mart carries it. Also be aware that OfficeWorks is Coles-Myer Group as well.

Well at AUS$19.95 I'm not surprised ! They've now got Lexmark P707 printers (photo quality, separate ink cartridges, built in camera memory card reader) at AUS$69,-- shame there's no OS/2 driver for this model ! It's getting crazy when it's cheaper to buy a new printer (with ink cartridges) that to buy replacement cartridges !! This can't be good for the environment !
