do you ever have to add toner or ink?

Not that I know of. But you should check on Brother website to be sure. I don't use it everyday. I have had labelers before, and never added anything but the tape.

no. I just bought the toner about a month ago. I bought the printer about three years ago. I wanted a spare, since this toner I am using now is a couple years old.

Of course it comes with a toner cartridge... that's the whole idea! They bait you with a low price and a OE low capacity toner cartridge, and nail you when you need a replacement. They ALL do that.

I would say no. If I go to change a toner, it knows if one is missing, and it wont print until one is put in it, and the chip on the toner tells the printer its status.on the other hand, you could simply turn off the color printing part thru its printer driver, and print just B&W;, and choose color just when you want it.I am happy with mine. we have HP and Konica Minolta's at work, and this printer prints, and looks every bit as quality as the big business models do. In fact, sometimes I print from home and take it in, and no one can tell, so I don't tell....spreadsheets, charts, graphs, digital pictures, screen shots, power point, Visio, its all A+!

Weird phrasing. Comes with a starter toner. Not as much toner as you would buy to replace it, but it gets you started.

Mine came with toner cartridges. I believe they were lower capacity but nonetheless, it came with toner.

Not that I know of, I haven't seen one, BUT one cool thing is when it starts to print light and you know you need a new toner cartridge, you can take out the current cartridge, shake it a few times, put it back in, and it works for quite a while longer, you can repeat this process for a long time, giving plenty of time to order a toner cartridge.

Sorry to get back to you late but yes toner cartridges come with it. Any new one will come with toner. It comes with the factory that way. There is quite a bit you have to do to remove all the temporary plastic pieces and tape installed for shipping related to just the toner cartridges in this machine.

Some sellers sell the toner and some do not. You need to read the descriptions. I sell the printer with toner.

Not by any documented process. toner replacement kits need to come with new chips.

Turning on the toner saver can extend the use, but I agree with the other poster that most dedicated Lasers have better cost per page. I've got one of those old HPs 4Ls with a refillable toner cart for those big jobs, at less than a penny a page.

It does come with toners; however, I don't believe they are as full as new cartridges. Since, I could not get the printer to work, I have no idea how long the temporary toners will last.

I received some low capacity toner cartridges with mine. Enough to do several hundred prints. There are high capacity toner cartridges available that are supposed to do over 20,000 prints.

It comes with starter toner. You need to go buy a full set (or individual if you want )

You do need to purchase the additional ink and paper kit to get use out of it. But like many ink jet printers they only give you enough to get started and refills are on you.

You receive a standard "starter pack" which basically includes mini versions of the cartridges (the yield is not as high as the regular cartridges are). It would be a good idea to buy the regular toner cartridges with the printer so that you have them available to you when the starter pack runs out.
