my brother MFC has a "replace toner message" since inserting the cartridge. How do I fix this?

Leann I would ask the company. Or I would look up the help at Brother's help area. I have no idea. I just buy the cartridge and my daughter puts it into the laser printer and handles it.

I hooked mine up and had the same problem. There's an adjustment on the cartridge that should fix the problem. It should be on the instructions. I thought mine was broken and after the adjustment it's been fine ever since.

I had the same problem. In my case, it wasn't the cartridge. I eventually purchased another printer.

My printer is different(dcp-7065). When I installed, I used the old cartridge holder and only replace the toner cartridge. There is a small paper in front of cartridge head(printing), make sure you pull it out. Thanks.

I bought mine back in Oct. 2013, it's been working great for 7 months now. I used to buy the original Brother toner which was almost $100.00, this one is a 'Brother TN350 compatible toner cartridge', I take it as a generic brand but is compatible to Brother TN350. Before you install the cartridge, make sure you shake it several times, shake it left and right plus up and down. These toner cartridges use dry powder ink, it may settle to one side during the shipping. Good luck!

yes it is, I've also found that it was resourceful to buy the ink refill kit instead of recycling or replacing the cartridge itself...it's somewhat messy and for some reason the printer still reads replace the toner but that's an issue that Brother needs to address with the printer function, everything else works as it should.

I believe you are referring to the plastic protect piece and yes that must be removed or the printer will not recognize the cartridge. It should also show you in your manual that came with the printer. If you are still having a problem go to Brother.com and you can call them and they will assist you. I have done that for other Brother products I own.

On 5/31/14 I did a reorder of a toner cartridge I bought 4-5 years ago. The price dropped by about half. I received an email response saying "Please note toner ordered is a compatible produced by our company M&A; Global LLC." Thus as of 5/31/14 it is not a genuine new Brother.

I have no experience with that, but I believe you would need to contact them through Amazon and explain the problem and they would ship you a new toner upon your return of the defective one. Again, I have had a good experience thus far with Cartitech so the foregoing is just speculation.

Take the toner out and re-install the old toner back and see if you still hear the loud noise. if it prints with out the loud noise, try put back the new one in and see if it works. maybe it wasn't seated properly.

You probably need to search for the "Toner Low" re-set sequence. I use the MFC7360. When I get a "Toner Low" message on the LCD it will not print until I put in a new cartridge. But the now non-OEM cartridge will not re-set the printer. This is Brother's way of trying to force you to buy OEM toner. I found the fix on Google but I think it is different for each printer.

I do not remember having this problem. Make sure that it is not warped...and that it will not get stuck. I've not had that problem and I buy the $200 (on sale) Brother MFC-7360N and recycle them once I've used their life up. About 1 to 1.5 years.....ask for a replacement if you are worried and that is why I try to have a couple on the shelf at all times. :)

I get the same message too. I just ignore it. This has to do with the " remanufactured cartridge " . HP does not recognize that.

Remove the cartridges and clean any toner dust from the unit. Replace the cartridges and slide the green swiper tab across the cartridge and return it to where the arrows meet. Sometimes generic cartridges will leak a LOT of toner. If this is the case use the original Brother toner. Works for me.

You should have gotten a message to replace the drum (in the window of the printer) I usually remove the drum and the ink cartridge, shake it from right to left (to distribute the powder/toner), replace the drum and the cartridge, print a page. If the page is still fading, then you need to replace the toner (usually, not the drum).

I have a Brother MFC-J870DW and have had no problems. Have purchased more than once. The person at Cartridge World has suggested to me that I always disconnect my printer before installing new cartridges. In fact, he recommends disconnecting power for a minute or two every month. Don't know if this will help, but hope it does.
