I've been quite happy with my HP Deskjet 3520, which is not only wireless but also supports airprint, which allows printing directly from iPhones and iPads. It's also got a scanner built in, so can act as a colour copier. Officeworks standard price is $67 but I've seen them on special from time to time for less than that. It uses the 564 ink cartridges, which are fairly common so there's often deals on originals plus there's heaps of options for refills or non-original cartridges. http://www.officeworks.com.au/retail/products/Technology/Pri…
Oh and it also can fax, and has proper duplex printing, which surprised me on such a cheap printer.
in the long term a laser mono is cheaper to run than an inkjet, so I wold suggest the Dell B1163w, wireless multifunciton laser for only $139

Can it scan to the home network or cloud storage wirelessly without the need of a PC ?
if you need scan to cloud services like dropbox, googledrive, skydrive or scan and scan to network folder then I recomend the C2665dnf smart multifunction printer, see below link for more info , you can get a WIFI adapter as well to make this device a wireless printer.

If you need something smaller without the cloud scanning , then you can go for the C1765nfw, has wireless and will scan to SMB or Scan to FTP , see below link fo rthe C1765nfw

I am also looking for the cheapest/reasonable wireless mono laser printer which can do duplex. Any suggestion?
A good option is the B2360dn and you can add a Dell wireless adapter to it, I could not find the adapter online but if you chat with a Dell rep sure they can send you a quote. additionally they are running a trade in cash back promo where you can get $100 cash back if you trade a working printer when you buy this one. check www.delltradetosave.com/au
Is the toner for the dell printer easy to get?
yes as easy as going to www.dell.com.au and order online, also you can order from "The Cartridge Family" http://www.thecartridgefamily.com.au/
Go to a wireless shop :-D
let's get serious for a sec.
I think you can have that for about $60-$65
Below are 2 models :
Epson Expression Home XP-200 Color Inkjet Multifunction Printer : $65

It's a color printer but use Inkjet method to print
Samsung ML-2165W Wireless Mono Laser Printer : $63
http://www.shoppingexpress.com.au/buy/samsung-ml-2165w-wirel…
It's a back&white printer but laser
So now the question is : do you want the color or not ? A laser color print will be much more expensive and so I don't thing it's what you're looking for.
Perso I would go for the laser as I think it's just much better than the inkjet. If I want things in color, like photos, I just get them printed in the local shop or online.
