We finally replaced the toner in ours after... 8 years? And it was still printing fine, I just couldn't bypass the warning anymore (started complaining at 1500, finally replaced at ~2400)

It got us through:

  • wife's immigration paperwork
  • my contracting work (lots of contracts)
  • lots of handouts for various community stuff
  • COVID at-home school assignments
  • drawing pages for the kids

And so on. The new one should last 8k more pages, so I think I'm set pretty much forever.

    For your replacement, did you buy an original brother toner?

    Yup. I'm willing to spend like $80-100 for something that should last the rest of my life. I've heard failure rates in after market toner cartridges are high, and I just don't want to take the risk.
