Do refilled toners last the same as new ones?

That depends on many factors. One is, the quality of the refill inks you use. Another is how well you do the refill.


Assuming your doing it yourself.


On the other hand if you purchase good quality factory refills, it should be the same as a new cartridge.Do refilled toners last the same as new ones?
I personally don't like the refilled.


I've had problems with the quality and the quantity more than once! They will replace it free usually, but who wants another after a problem?





If you need to print anything important, keep a spare and replace it as soon as you install the last remaining one.





Seems to always be problems when I need it most!Do refilled toners last the same as new ones?
supposed to last long or longer than new ones but it all depends on how it was refilled and how much it was refilled, if you want you can try to contact these store www.optinex8@yahoo.com they supply a remanufactured toner and it is a good quality
If you buy them refilled from a reliable source, it's ok.
In general, I hear that refills do not last as long. I also hear that some GENERIC toner modules do not last as long.





Some claim that refill and generic toner modules are not good for your printer. Something about the grain of the toner itself, that does not meet the manufacturer's spec.





It would be great if CNET.com or other websites reviewed these sorts of products. After all, what's the sense of reviewing printers, where the REAL cost of a printer is in the lifetime of inkjet or toner modules that you put into it.





STAPLES, for instance, is a big promoter of recycling toner modules, and has their own brand of generic toner modules. I only buy HP for my HP LaserJet, but the savings is pretty tempting.





A friend of mine bought hundreds of BRAND X inkjet cartrides, only to learn that they lasted about half as long as the name brand. But this worked out OK for him, since the discount price was about a third of the regular inkjet cartridges. He used them to print thousands of brochures, and went through dozens of inkjet cartridges. He was also using three computers with three different printers. YES, he spent DAYS printing this stuff.
They can if they are good quality

Laser printer is printing dirty pages after I refilled the toner. Please help!?

I purchased a new drum unit for our Panasonic KX-MB271 laser printer and it worked pretty well until the toner was low. I went on amazon and found one of those refill kits which was basically a bottle full of toner and I just refilled it following the directions. I'm not sure what happened but a few days later whenever I would print anything the paper would be dirty. Even when I printed out a blank white sheet of paper, it would come out lightly tinted gray. Could I have spilled toner on the rollers or something? I disassembled the printer and tried cleaning it but the problem is still there. I don't want to get rid of this printer since I just spent $100 on a new drum unit for it. Please help!Laser printer is printing dirty pages after I refilled the toner. Please help!?
Is this is a drum/toner cartridge that you refilled? or a separate toner cartridge from the drum?





If it is a combined toner/drum cartridge that you refilled then I'd say that the cartridge is just worn out. These cartridges are not built all that well to last for more than they were intended. There are other internal parts that control the toner application, clean the drum and store waste toner that need attention too. If the waste toner part is full then you'll get this toner coming back out onto your prints. If the drum cleaning parts are worn out - same thing. I really don't ever recommend refilling toner cartridges as there are so many other things that can, and will, wear out and other potential problems from doing so. Also the re-fill toner may not have been of the proper quality as the ones in the cartridges.





I'm sure the printer is still fine, but recommend purchasing a new, or at least a professionally re-manufactured cartridge (though there can be problems with these as well many times). I know they are expensive, but provide more consistent good quality prints.





Best of luck.Laser printer is printing dirty pages after I refilled the toner. Please help!?

After refilling the toner cartage how do I bypass low toner warning on my MFC-7420 Brother printer.?

Try turning off your printer and unplugging it for a few minutes. This clears the memory and sometimes makes the printer recognize that the cartridge is no longer empty. Other than that, unfortunately there is not a whole lot you can do. Sometimes stuff like this just happens when you refill, especially laser toners.

Ignore the the dangerous posts. I've been working on copiers and printers for over 25 years The WAS some copper in some early brands of toner. There is carbon in the dry stuff and you can get black lung if you sit in a cloud of the stuff for weeks. The manufacturer's all have MSDS at there sites if in doubt read them. I would do it in a garage or outside the first time and wear old clothes !
Yes.


You can do that at cheaper cost.

Laser printer printing dirty pages after refilling toner. I have a new drum. Please help.?

So I own a Panasonic Laser printer and after the toner was running low, I purchased some toner refill for the same printer off amazon. I already had a new drum installed for a week and it was printing fine but after I refilled the toner and put it in the drum, my printer started printing out dirty pages. Even if I printed out a white page, it would come out with gray specs throughout the paper. The printer has a separate drum/toner and I believe that the toner empties into the drum when you attach the two together. After I started getting dirty pages I took the toner out and opened it and found that it was empty even though I just filled it up. I'm guessing all of the refilled toner went into the drum because now when I print without the toner installed on top of the drum, it still prints dirty pages. I tried manually cleaning it but it just seemed to make it worse. My printer software did not come with any sort of cleaning utility. Should I take my printer to bestbuy or something to have them service it? I really dont want my new drum to go to waste.





Please help!Laser printer printing dirty pages after refilling toner. I have a new drum. Please help.?
You issue is that you refilled the toner and didn't replace andy gearings or electrostatic rollars.





Replace the toner with a new toner or profesionally repurbished toner.





Print a pile of blank pages until you get a clean print.


You may need to replace the drum if you had too much spillage from the refilled toner.





Taking it in for servicing isn't going to do anything, you are just going to end up paying somebody $50 to tell you to replace the toner and drum.Laser printer printing dirty pages after refilling toner. I have a new drum. Please help.?
Bring the toner back. Their is a cleanning blade on it which is not functioning correctly. Their is no reason that the toner should leak. It is not the drum, that is for sure.
he drum is not being cleaned properly between prints. Depending on your printer, that could be the fault of the cleaning blade, the cleaning drum, or possibly an erase lamp, if your printer is very old.





Again, depending on your printer, this could be corrected by changing the toner cartridge (not refilling it).





You may also have toner spilled within the printer - have you tried opening it and cleaning it manually?





Toner leakage, it happen to me when I refilled, but I have only 1 tiny spot, not a big problem for me
if you have a solid grey/ghost print all over the page then the toner you installed was not the correct toner for that machine. did the box have your model of printer listed on it? with most laser printers if you use a ';generic'; toner you will get problems right away when you install the toner. if it was me i would have the toner removed and have the developer unit cleaned out and have all of the waste toner removed and then reinstall with panasonic OEM toner. if it was only a toner spill you would only have a dirty back on your page printed it would look like Black streaks/smears/lines. i don't think it is a spill. good luck

Question about refilling toner- HP Laserjet P1006?

Hello. I was wanted to buy a toner refill kit for my printer.


I was wondering if the reset chip that some kits include are Absolutely Necessary for the printer to function like new.


The reset chip costs an extra 12 bucks, so I don't really want to have to buy it, but if I have to, i guess I should.


I was also wondering if there is a limit to the number of times you can refill a toner cartridge.





Thanks!Question about refilling toner- HP Laserjet P1006?
You do absolutely need the chip.





Generally speaking you will be lucky to refill a toner once. The green electrostatic roller wears out very quickly and you will see a decline in print quality rapidly.





It is not recommended to refill toners for a variety of reasons.





The first is of course the toner dust itself is very toxic stuff.


Secondly, the chip is difficult to install and get working properly.


Third you will be lucky to get one full life cycle out of a toner.


Fourth, there are mechanical parts in a toner that if they wear out and break down can cause irreparable damage to your printer.





If you are looking to cut cost look into professionally factory refurbished toners. They will have replaced the nylon gears, chips and electrostatic roller.Question about refilling toner- HP Laserjet P1006?

If you do have any problems, call em and they will replace the cart for free.
Often times toner ';refills'; do not work properly. This is because the cartridge itself is only made to be used once or twice. Further, there is a chip on the cartridge that tells the printer how much toner is remaining as well as how many pages have been printed. Chances are, the chip is communicating with your printer telling ti there is no more toner as it was once (twice?) empty.





There are remanufactured cartridges available for HL 2070n (Tn350). These are available at most major office supply retailers or many remanufacturing sales companies nationwide. These will offer significant savings vs brother brand.





I also recommend this over refilling your own because most do-it-yourself kits wind up leaking in your printer or do not get the page yield you should get. Costing money in the long-run.





You can check www.envirotoneimaging.com and contact for sales. I know there is next-day shipping available across the US at no charge to you.

Avoid refilled, however factory refurbished will be fine.





A refilled cartridge is simply add more toner, repackage and ship it off to you.





Toners have moving parts, they have consumable parts and they need to be inspected and sometimes replaced in order to achieve a high quaility print.





You should be able to find a very well priced 12A re manufactured toner cartridge. As long as the company you are purchasing from offers a full guarantee, go for it!.Is refilled or 3rd party Laser Toner safe to buy?
It should be safe as long as you are not buying it in a dark ally from a guy out of the back of his van lol.

I have bought toner refills from NorthBay Toner on ebay for Brother and HP laser printers. They worked fine except in one situation where it was too light, which they explained was due to the drum, which deteriorates over time, not the toner. Even though I called them 3 months or so after the purchase, they sent me 3 bottles of a specially formulated toner designed to be darker, which worked perfectly. I paid about $5 per bottle for the original toner. They sent me the replacements at their expense. Now that's what I call customer service!

How do laser printer toner refilling?

Some can be refilled easy and other are very difficult. It is best to use original cartridges because they are less likely to 'fail' Refills tend not to last as long, the toner supplied for refills is more grey than black and when they fail they usually leak toner into your printer. Toner is carcinogenic (causes cancer) when inhaled or absorbed through your skin, so it is best not to risk it. Refilling your printer with non original toner will automatically void your warranty.

First by a fume hood and ventilator, small screw drivers.


a scalpel, grounding cuff, *toner vacuum (a household machine will not be able to pick up the fine toner particulate)


Do this under a fume hood while wearing a ventilator - toner dust is toxic. The colour toner especially!





Now that you have the proper equipment to do this you will need the following supplies.





Toner


replacement smart chip.


replacement electrostatic roller.


Replacement gearing


l





first you will want to dismantle the casing replacing all nylon gears (the metal ones will be okay) then the electrostatic roller.


Be careful not to get any residual toner into into the gearing.


Reassemble the casing.





Remove the old smart chip and replace with the new chip.





Make a small hole in the end of the toner reservoir (you will know where this is from you disassembly). Some of the rebate toners will have a plastic plug, if this is the case remove the plug.





Slowly, preferably using a funnel pour toner into the hole.





Seal the hole.





Preferably using a then plastic patch treated with epoxy.





Install.

Refilling instead of putting in new ones? Don't be cheap. Use new cartridges. You can refill old ones several times and be fine, but some day they'll leak and it will be a huge mess.


If you still want to refill, the instructions on how to do it are printed on the refill kits. Read them.

Where can i find video instructions about refilling toner cartridges or extensive documentation about that?

There are plenty of instructions on the web and three or four web sites devoted to just this issue, however, I have to wonder why you want to do this.


Let me tell you a couple of issues you will face.





#1 Toner cartidges have many components, all of which have a rather short life cycle. All of these need to be serviced and or replaced to properly 'refill' a toner cartridge. The Photo-conductive drum, the waste bin, the wiper blade, the primary charge roller, the electrical contacts for the PCR, the Toner Bin, the magnetic roller that draws toner from the toner bin, the electrical contacts of said roller and the metering or doctor blade that meters the toner pulled out of the toner bin. All of these parts need to be removed cleaned properly wich includes but is not limited to vacuuming each part and putting them all back together.





#2 There is still toner in the cartridge that will need to be vacuumed out, you cannot do it with a normal household vacuum or it will at least blow toner dust all over the area and at worse eat up the vacuum motor.





Oh, one final note, if you do something wrong, like not properly clean the waste toner bin, or improperly replace the wiper blade or miss seat the contacts on the magnetic roller or improperly gap the doctor blade or not place every gear removed back properly,... The refilled cartridge could seize up, lock down and cause major damage to your printer before it even prints a single page.





BEWARE of attempting this on your own. If you are tired of giving the OEM guys WAY TOO much money for ';New'; cartridges, buy one from a remanufacturing company. Ask them questions before you buy and find out if every cartridge is print tested after rebuilding, and remember it is not refilling that you EVER want to do or have done, it is REBUILDING or REMANUFACTURING.





I hope this helps you see the big picture.Where can i find video instructions about refilling toner cartridges or extensive documentation about that?
To have the best results you need to professionally remanufacture a toner cartridge (change all parts such as drums, blades, rollers, toner etc). On average however these parts will last another 1 life cycle, giving you about a 10% decrease in quality and page yield each subsequent cycle. Report Abuse

There's a lot more to it than plunking toner in. There are parts that need to be replaced (their lifespan is approximately one cycle of toner; drum, blade, chip).





If you want to save money, buy a quality remanufactured cartridge. Filling an inkjet cartridge is one thing, but filling your own toner cartridge is totally different.





BTW, your machine also takes a 49X high yield cartridge. I recommend that one: you get two-and-a-half times the toner, without paying two-and-a-half times the price.How can i refill HP Laserjet 1320 Black Toner cartridge 49A?
Actually it is now quite easy. Just purchase a refill kit from rechargex.com and you can do this twice. Save $$$$$$$$ Report Abuse

You go to the computer store and purchase a new ink cartage, Accidents with a nice printer is not worth cutting corners.
Note that refilling the toner is only half the story. By simply refilling the area containing the toner you are allowing the ';toner reserve receptacle'; to fill with additional leftover toner from print jobs. When this receptacle is filled the toner will spill out and will make your unit dirty, to say the least.
You need to purchase a refill kit, it come with instruction and the correct toner powder, you save half the cost and may get more output than the original, maybe not as black but should be acceptable. You need to punch a hole and fill the toner, then seal back with a tape. Be careful, not all toner powder are the same, buy the kit and you wouldn't go wrong. Depend on which country you are in, should be able to search supplier.

-Remove the screws on both ends of the portion with the roller cover with toner ( avoid touchin ) pay attention to the gears on the one of the ends


-remove the screws of the plastic blade and remove it


-Refill


-reasemble


-On the portion of the large roller (drum) remove the contact on the geared side of the drum (hold it with the drum on the top) and remove it, avoid touchin


-remove the cleaning blade


-dump the residues, this is the waste toner ( you can reuse it but the print quality will not be as good as should it may help in an emergency)


DO NOT CLEAN THE EDGE OF THIS BLADE, IF YOU DO SO TRY TO PUT SOME TONER ON IT IN, IT WORKS A LUBRICANT TO AVOID THE DRUM FROM SEIZE

I've used bulk toners with my old printer, you won't get the quality and you DO risk your machine but as most these days often have the heads as a buyable thing (ie if your printer cartriges come in expensive or not expensive models - one the cartrige the other the cartrige with the heads as well) then it's probably okay.





Your best bet is asking the manufacturer but they'll tend to tell you to use their own ink (of course they would they make money outa their inks).





If you're printing assignments n junk go for it, why waste money?

If you refill them, you also have to reset the chip, or the printer can not read the ink levels.


Now the new compatible or remanufactured toner cartridges are really cheap and reliable, it's better to buy a new toner than refill them.

When I hit my printer it states I am out of toner, do the mean I need to refill my cartage of colors ?

if your printer uses a toner.. it's not color.. it's just black. then you should by a new one..When I hit my printer it states I am out of toner, do the mean I need to refill my cartage of colors ?
yes you will need to buy a whole new cartridge. Refilling them will not always give you 100% results. Try the markets they are much cheaper there. If not you will have to pay full price from your local computer shop or online ink store.





also try shaking the catridge, so take it out and shake it.When I hit my printer it states I am out of toner, do the mean I need to refill my cartage of colors ?
That's what it's telling you. Hit it again (only this time use a hammer) and it might say something else, like ouch!
I think that means you have to hit it harder
You need more ink
Do the refill only when the pages come out with dulled colours. The msg always comes out long before your cartridge is depleted.





Do you really like hitting your printer? You've got a prob...
yes
indeed
You can refill them yourself OR you can buy some from a place like monstertoners dot com,
As a rule, I only replace toner in a printer when I start seeing pages coming out with less ink on them. Printers often say they are low or out of toner long before they actually run out.

How to refill hp 1018 toner Cartridge? Please help?

Refilling these poses certain health risks in that airborne toner is a carcinogen and working with it requires special tools. If your supplier doesn't provide refilling instructions, perhaps it's time to consider another alternative.





These cartridges are widely available as remanufactured and compatible replacements. They come with pretty great product warrantees as well.





In the future, you can save a lot of money and the hassles you're currently experiencing by purchasing factory remanufactured toner cartridges from a reputable online retailer.

Should I replace or refill a toner for laser printer?

I have a laser printer (canon, black and white). I want to know whether I should replace the entire cartridge/toner when the existing one is finished or should I refill it? Refilling is cheaper (takes around Rs 400) but replacing costs much more (Rs 3000). However some people say a refilled toner gives print outs of poorer quality. There may be black spots or stray marks here and there or near the border the print out. Is that true?Should I replace or refill a toner for laser printer?
Its ok to refill with fresh toner but its best not done forever! posibibly 3-4 times IF you find a place that uses GOOD toner!..If you start seeing light print or blochy print try taking the cartridge out and shake it up tap it a bit and put it back. Try it again. Sometimes the toner gets hard due to moisture content so shaking it will brake up the clumps of toner. This can add a little more life to your cartridge. the money you save on refills can help you afford a new fresh cartridge!Should I replace or refill a toner for laser printer?
It depends if you get a ';good quality'; refill cartridge/toner. I would go with the refilling since it's cheaper. Also, I have no problems with it.
I've been refilling my HP cartridges for years and have saved myself a ton of money doing so. I have never noticed a decrease in the quality and even print off photos, which are very precious to me. I'd say refill!
refill and see if it suits your standards

How do laser printer toner refilling?

Some can be refilled easy and other are very difficult. It is best to use original cartridges because they are less likely to 'fail' Refills tend not to last as long, the toner supplied for refills is more grey than black and when they fail they usually leak toner into your printer. Toner is carcinogenic (causes cancer) when inhaled or absorbed through your skin, so it is best not to risk it. Refilling your printer with non original toner will automatically void your warranty.

Avoid refilled, however factory refurbished will be fine.





A refilled cartridge is simply add more toner, repackage and ship it off to you.





Toners have moving parts, they have consumable parts and they need to be inspected and sometimes replaced in order to achieve a high quaility print.





You should be able to find a very well priced 12A re manufactured toner cartridge. As long as the company you are purchasing from offers a full guarantee, go for it!.Is refilled or 3rd party Laser Toner safe to buy?
It should be safe as long as you are not buying it in a dark ally from a guy out of the back of his van lol.

I have bought toner refills from NorthBay Toner on ebay for Brother and HP laser printers. They worked fine except in one situation where it was too light, which they explained was due to the drum, which deteriorates over time, not the toner. Even though I called them 3 months or so after the purchase, they sent me 3 bottles of a specially formulated toner designed to be darker, which worked perfectly. I paid about $5 per bottle for the original toner. They sent me the replacements at their expense. Now that's what I call customer service!

Which laser printer model can its toner cartridge can be easily refilled and reuse?

I have two Brother HL-2040 lasers which I bought for about $50 each. I have refilled each for $6 with toner bought on Ebay. You need a $3 part called a reset gear to make it work. Without this, refilling will result in very light copies. The printers are now going on about 3 years of regular use.

Which is the right toner for refilling the samsung 1710p model laser printer?

SASML - 1740D3/XAA - Black

Where can i find video instructions about refilling toner cartridges or extensive documentation about that?

There are plenty of instructions on the web and three or four web sites devoted to just this issue, however, I have to wonder why you want to do this.


Let me tell you a couple of issues you will face.





#1 Toner cartidges have many components, all of which have a rather short life cycle. All of these need to be serviced and or replaced to properly 'refill' a toner cartridge. The Photo-conductive drum, the waste bin, the wiper blade, the primary charge roller, the electrical contacts for the PCR, the Toner Bin, the magnetic roller that draws toner from the toner bin, the electrical contacts of said roller and the metering or doctor blade that meters the toner pulled out of the toner bin. All of these parts need to be removed cleaned properly wich includes but is not limited to vacuuming each part and putting them all back together.





#2 There is still toner in the cartridge that will need to be vacuumed out, you cannot do it with a normal household vacuum or it will at least blow toner dust all over the area and at worse eat up the vacuum motor.





Oh, one final note, if you do something wrong, like not properly clean the waste toner bin, or improperly replace the wiper blade or miss seat the contacts on the magnetic roller or improperly gap the doctor blade or not place every gear removed back properly,... The refilled cartridge could seize up, lock down and cause major damage to your printer before it even prints a single page.





BEWARE of attempting this on your own. If you are tired of giving the OEM guys WAY TOO much money for ';New'; cartridges, buy one from a remanufacturing company. Ask them questions before you buy and find out if every cartridge is print tested after rebuilding, and remember it is not refilling that you EVER want to do or have done, it is REBUILDING or REMANUFACTURING.





I hope this helps you see the big picture.Where can i find video instructions about refilling toner cartridges or extensive documentation about that?
To have the best results you need to professionally remanufacture a toner cartridge (change all parts such as drums, blades, rollers, toner etc). On average however these parts will last another 1 life cycle, giving you about a 10% decrease in quality and page yield each subsequent cycle. Report Abuse

try reink.com and that is where I get my ink
- Remove the spring located on one end of the cartridge


-Remove the two small pins holding the two halves together


-Remove the screws on both ends of the portion with the roller cover with toner ( avoid touchin ) pay attention to the gears on the one of the ends


-remove the screws of the plastic blade and remove it


-Refill


-reasemble


-On the portion of the large roller (drum) remove the contact on the geared side of the drum (hold it with the drum on the top) and remove it, avoid touchin


-remove the cleaning blade


-dump the residues, this is the waste toner ( you can reuse it but the print quality will not be as good as should it may help in an emergency)


DO NOT CLEAN THE EDGE OF THIS BLADE, IF YOU DO SO TRY TO PUT SOME TONER ON IT IN, IT WORKS A LUBRICANT TO AVOID THE DRUM FROM SEIZE


-reasemble


-put the two halves togather and try it


Good luck

How can i refill HP Laserjet 1320 Black Toner cartridge 49A?

procedure required.How can i refill HP Laserjet 1320 Black Toner cartridge 49A?
There's a lot more to it than plunking toner in. There are parts that need to be replaced (their lifespan is approximately one cycle of toner; drum, blade, chip).





If you want to save money, buy a quality remanufactured cartridge. Filling an inkjet cartridge is one thing, but filling your own toner cartridge is totally different.





BTW, your machine also takes a 49X high yield cartridge. I recommend that one: you get two-and-a-half times the toner, without paying two-and-a-half times the price.How can i refill HP Laserjet 1320 Black Toner cartridge 49A?
Actually it is now quite easy. Just purchase a refill kit from rechargex.com and you can do this twice. Save $$$$$$$$ Report Abuse

You go to the computer store and purchase a new ink cartage, Accidents with a nice printer is not worth cutting corners.
Note that refilling the toner is only half the story. By simply refilling the area containing the toner you are allowing the ';toner reserve receptacle'; to fill with additional leftover toner from print jobs. When this receptacle is filled the toner will spill out and will make your unit dirty, to say the least.
You need to purchase a refill kit, it come with instruction and the correct toner powder, you save half the cost and may get more output than the original, maybe not as black but should be acceptable. You need to punch a hole and fill the toner, then seal back with a tape. Be careful, not all toner powder are the same, buy the kit and you wouldn't go wrong. Depend on which country you are in, should be able to search supplier.

I collect kyocera waste toner can i use or refill it back to cartridges?

single compound toner has both an iron content as well as a polymeric


element that melts into 'ink' when it goes through the fuser.


the drum utilizes an electrostatic method to attract toner to it as an image. the wast toner is passed to the wast chamber in the cartridge.


because it has been subject to this electrostatic charge,it won't attract


to the drum like virgin toner would.this would work on some copiers


and printers for draft,but the print quality is degraded.some equpment


wont work at all.ie:Brother. HP works,but noticably poorer.


I havn't personally tried Kyocera,so you would have to experiment


with reloading yourself and check the results.


color and multi part toner will not work at all,as it is mixed,and cannot


be re used.


cross brand toner usually wont work either. ie:cannon toner in HP.

Polish the drum with clean cloth and Brasso.





After removing the drum you would see the waste toner chamber. Empty it and clean it dry. Reassemble the unit.Samsung toner refilling. How do I empty the excess toner from the 2nd barrel?

I just refill my Brother toner cartr.& now all of my pages have marking on them. Is there anyway to fix this?

This can happen if the refill was not performed cleanly.


It is actually a common problem.





Cause :


Print quality issues where toner is ';dumping'; or ';leaking';, or where images are repeating on a printed page, are usually caused by a missing or improperly positioned drum cleaner or drum cleaner cover.





Or


This issue can also be caused by the fuser.





Things to Try





1. Verify that one or more of your printer's consumable supplies are not low. Many print quality issues are caused simply by a supply item that is at or near the end of its expected functional yield.





2. Remove the cartridges and reseat the cleaning roller and the cleaning roller cover. Incorrect placement of one or both of these items is the most likely cause of this issue.





Hope this helps,


MattI just refill my Brother toner cartr.%26amp; now all of my pages have marking on them. Is there anyway to fix this?
If its got streaks and the pages look generally dirty, then your drum is shot. Your only option in that scenario is to get another cartridge. You should really just buy the refilled toners from a retailer, so you will have some kind of warranty. professional refillers inspect and rebuild the toner cartridges to ensure that problems like this do not arise.I just refill my Brother toner cartr.%26amp; now all of my pages have marking on them.

Nope, what happens is the green roller (electrostaic drum) wear out quickly and is very sensitive. If you have touched this roller, bumped it or are using a toner which is not fully compatible your roller is shot.





You need to replace the toner, possibly the drum.

Brother printer toner refill.?

Is it easy to refill the toner cartridge for a Brother laser printer model HL-2140?


Where to find the toner and how to fill it?Brother printer toner refill.?
yes and no. it is easy to fill the toner but if it is the original toner which came with the printer, they deliberately leave out a $4 starter gear which is needed to regulate the amount of charge going to the drum. Without this gear, the copies will come out too light and be nearly useless. I threw out two of these printers until I came across Northbay Toner who explained this to me and provided what I needed. I now have two Brother lasers working well on $5 refills. For more info, see http://ccs-digital.com/northbay.htmlBrother printer toner refill.?

If you return your old toner cartridge to HP after you replace it, will they refill it and send it back?

When you buy a new toner cartridge from HP, they send you a postal proof that you can put back on the box it comes in, tape the box back up with your old toner cartridge, and mail it back. Are they just asking you to send it back for recycling reasons, or are they going to fill it back up and send it back to you full? This is the 12 inch cartridge for an HP laserjet 5100.If you return your old toner cartridge to HP after you replace it, will they refill it and send it back?
no they are not but the do recycle themIf you return your old toner cartridge to HP after you replace it, will they refill it and send it back?
Wouldn't that be great if they did refill them and send them back? They provide the shipping label with their products as a way to show they are an environmentally friendly company that doesn't want everyone just tossing out the cartridges into the trash. They will take the cartridge back and recycle it properly so that it doesn't add to the ever growing computer related trash nowadays. I don't believe they will refurbish it as they like to sell only new cartridges that are much more reliable, but they could sell them to other recyclers, break them down into their unique components and melt them down for re-use or simply dispose of them in a more appropriate manner.





Take care.
They willnot simply refuill it, they will dismantle the old one, replace the image drum and developer systems, tests them then refill.





This is allowed for in the costs, as it actually costs about the same to refurbish a cartridge PROPERLY as to manufacture a new casing, so they get you to send it back as under USA laws thay have to.

Hi! I have a Konica Minolta 5430DL Color Laser Printer. Toner cartridges are $200 a pop. Would a refill kit be a better option? I keep hearing that they aren't a great thing. But $800 for 4 cartridges is hard to swallow.Konica Minolta 5430DL Toner Refill Kit?

How can I refill my samsung ML1510 toner cartridge myself?

simple to follow steps. can toner for HP printer work for a samsung printer?How can I refill my samsung ML1510 toner cartridge myself?
Jen505 is correct.





Do not use toner powder that is not specifically formulated for the printer in question. Each manufacturer has different specifications and each printer works a little differently. Using the incorrect toner powder can ruin the printer.





If you're committed to doing this yourself, it's fairly simple if you buy a kit designed for your printer as it'll undoubtedly come with directions.





In short, you'll need to remove the fill plug at the end of the cartridge, carefully dump out any old toner to empty the hopper and refill it with new toner before reinserting the plug.





It's assumed that you can do this up to 3 times per cartridge before the cartridge is completely worn out and must be rebuilt.





Be advised that toner is a carcinogen (causes cancer) and that, once airborne, the particles remain in the air for hours. Spilled toner is extremely difficult to clean up and that refilling cartridges will require some tools.





Do not use a regular vacuum to clean up spills, you'll gum up the works and burn out the motor.





My recommendation is that you leave refilling to the experts, that way you're sure to get what you need and your printer won't get damaged.How can I refill my samsung ML1510 toner cartridge myself?
no you cant, professional ink refillers at stores mess up on 1 in 5 ink cartridges so having you do it is much worse. plus the printer will get all messed up because it will think it is using one type of ink to mix with another to make a different color and it will make a whole different color and look terrible
I have refilled toners several times with more success as I learned a few things about toners and drums and what printer companies do to prevent refilling. I have successfully refilled Brother ($5 instead of $60), HP ($10 instead of $60) and Ricoh ($50 instead of $200). I found a company called NorthBay Toner to be very helpful and their customer service excellent. You can read this page and contact them

Do you know of a website/s where I can learn how to load refill powder in a printer toner cartridge ?

There are toner powder available in the market. Do you know where ( a link to a website ) I can learn how to load toner powder into a laser printer's toner cartridge.





Thank you.Do you know of a website/s where I can learn how to load refill powder in a printer toner cartridge ?
This is easier said than done in some printers. Not only must you have the special tools some of these cartridges require you must ensure you have the correct toner mix for your printer.





Toner comes in several industry standards, some are finer than others, while they are made to work with particular diffuser / temperature / humidity ranges. If you use the wrong one you could end up messing up your printer and having to pay a costly repair and buying the original toner cartridge any way.





Instead of filling this item at home, I suggest you send your old cartridge to be re-filled at one of the many refill companies available online. Save yourself all the headaches.





If you can get the correct media, filling one of these cartridges is easy, just open it up and pour in the reacquired/measured amount of the toner powder and re-assemble. You WILL NEED an appropriate respirator. These powders are VERY FINE, not only do they make a mess when spilled, they can damage your lungs if you don't protect yourself.Do you know of a website/s where I can learn how to load refill powder in a printer toner cartridge ?
Start at locator magazine or imagerzone.com It is a complicated process to do properly. My advice is to READ alot.

Has anyone tried to refill laser toner cartridges?

Don't refill toner cartridges by yourself. The toner is a very fine powder, and if you breathe it in it's not good for you. Some argue that it can cause severe lung problems, including cancer. If you don't have to because it's your profession, don't refill them.


Plus most cartridges contain more than just toner and require some maintenance before they can be put back into the printer.





Don't do it.

Simple and easy to refill a toner cartridge?

I need to save some $$$ if possible.Simple and easy to refill a toner cartridge?
There is no such thing as a simple and easy to refill toner cartridge.





You have drum units (that transfer the image) they are usually electrostatically charged and they do get very grimy. They need to be cleaned.





Usually there is a fuse on the cartridge that blows once it it empty. That needs to be replaced.





Toner dust is some nasty stuff -%26gt; see link


http://hardware.slashdot.org/hardware/07鈥?/a>





Finally toners have moving parts that need to be lubricated and often replaced after a single use.





If you are looking to save some money, try to hunt down a factory refurbished cartridge. They will usually save you anywhere from 20-50% off the OEM price and are not going to cause you any problems.Simple and easy to refill a toner cartridge?
I'd suggest looking in your area (try the Yellow Pages) for places that will re-fill the cartridge for you. It is more expensive than re-filling on your own, but these places usually have money-back guarantees. Cartridges don't last forever too, because the coating on the main roller inside the cartridge wears out - the money-back guarantee would come in handy here.


Refilling a copy machine is a real pain in the butt (many office workers can tell you this) because the toner is like fine powder and it goes all over the place when you try to pour it out of the bottle. A printer cartridge is easier, but you have to be real careful.
I have refilled and most time they indicate to drill


holes in correct area but i have managed to cut the lable and expose the cover of which with a sharp kitchen knife pry open to expose the colored


sponges then it is easy to see and fill tillthe liquid is visible.


then just close and tape cover.
whats the question?whether its easy to refill cartridge?if so the newer the priter the harder it is,ive been a cartridge tech for ten yrs,give more detail what sort of cartridge is it?

If you are unable to find the instructions please send me a personal message and I will get it for you. My 4L has been put put out to grass in my loft so it is not to hand but I will look if you need me to.





PS I have now located my old printer and looking at the cartridge with the wire nearest to you there are FOUR rectangles numbered 1 to 4 from left to right.


The hole is melted in the centre of the Number 1 rectangle.





Dont forget to put good sticky tape securely over the hole after filling.





If you need more details contact me.Where do i melt hole in HP9227a toner cartridge to refill please?
With a laser printer you don't





There is no such thing as a fill hole, likewise if you make one, your cartridge will spew toner everywhere.





There is a plastic cap on the end of the cartridge which needs to be carefully removed and replaced in order to ';fill'; the cartridge.





Keep in mind that laser toner dust is highly toxic, filling of a toner should be done while wearing a fine particulate mask under a fume hood or other suction chamber. The dust is very fine and Willl fly everywhere otherwise.





Also, if you kit did not include a new electrostatic roller, be advised that your print quality wil deteriorate quickly. Likewise there is a ';wand'; on that particular toner which needs to be replaced as well..





Toners are mechanical and have many moving parts which break down quickly. Although many people try, refilling is not as simple as just adding more ink. In fact most laser toner cartridges cannot simply be refilled. Refill at your own risk, if the cartridge seized, leaks or has a toner that is too coarse, to fine or carrying, a variable charge it will ruin your printer, gum up your fuser or create a fire hazard.

How do i refill my toner cartridge?

Ok. At work i have this panasonic fax machine.. I have the cartridge and the powder to refill it. I assumed this was not a confusing task and figured that i just pour a small portion of the toner into the cartridge but now when pages print out there are lines in it. I don't know how to get rid of these... am i not adding enough toner?How do i refill my toner cartridge?
black lines or white lines? A black line which shouldnt be there means the drum is picking up toner when it shouldnt be or not wiping away the excess toner. For this you have to check the drum for dirt or imperfections, and the brush which wipes away toner. A white line means it is not picking up toner where it should. That can mean not enough toner in the cartridge, or the toner is not spead around evenly (did you shake the cartridge before installing it?) or there is a scratch on the drum (and that's something you can't fix). Some toner cartridges have to be completely emptied before you refill it.

If it isn't then the design goes against whatever eco-friendly or green-happy course that Humans are moving towards.


It is in the Corporates interest to make them Un-refillable, or economically unfit to recycle or re-use.


Depends on the brand, I guess.
The short answer is yes, however you better be very skilled





Toners have moving parts that need to be replaced upon refilling, there are gears, rollers, and ribbons that all need to completely checked and reconditioned. Most toner cartridges will have smart chip that need to be set or replaced, not to mention you cannot put a hole in a toner cartridge, so knowing where to actually put the toner can be a challenges.





Some toners also have integrated drum units that need to be properly cleaned. This would include, most monochrome HP printers, all samsung printers, most lexmark, some konica minolta.





As a final point, toner dust is messy and carcinogenic and tough to keep from getting airborne, so ideally you would be using a particulate respirator and filling it under an industrial fume hood.
yer its posible, they go throught more ink than the ink jets
Well, refilling Laser toner cartridges is usually not recommended as during manufacturing of laser toners, old drums are replaced with new ones.





You might also need to change other parts of your laser toner which is a costly and messy process. So it鈥檚 generally avoided.

Will an HP 53A Toner fit a Brother HL-2040?

NO... even if it physically fit.. it won't work..





two different brands, two entirely different toners..





Maggie BWill an HP 53A Toner fit a Brother HL-2040?
It isn't unusual for a toner cartridge to fit more than one brand and model of printer. At least back in the '90s, many printer manufactures would buy the ';engine'; or guts of the printer from Canon and therefore they'd all use the same toner cartridge.





In this case, though, from what I see on the web the Brother uses bottles of toner and a separate replaceable drum, whereas the HP 53A is the conventional all-in-one cartridge. So, the answer is no, unless you want to break open the HP cartridge and pour out the toner powder. This might work fine, or it might not.Will an HP 53A Toner fit a Brother HL-2040?
Brother HL-2040 use TN-350 toner. It can not be interchangeably used with HP. Note that all vendors depend on the sale of accessories to survive.
No, the contacts are different on the HP, I don't think I would try, if it gets stuck you could have another problem, if you want to save money find a re manufactured toner cartridge for your printer, hope this helped and good luck.

Anyone Have Problems with Toner for Brother Fax/Copier/Printers?

We bought this Brother Fax/Copier that takes a TN-350 toner cartridge. The problem was that it ran out very quickly, giving nowhere the 2500 copies that it says in the manual.





I looked on the net and found that inside the printer there is an ';eye'; on each side of the cartridge and a corresponding one in each side of the machine itself. If you get some black tape or some of those round sticky spots and cover both eyes in the printer it no longer gives the toner low message.





There is another problem though, on the left side of the toner cartridge there is a gear with an arm on it that turns as it's used. Once the arm turns all the way anti clockwise the printer says replace cartridge no matter how much toner is left.





To get around this I wound tape around the lug near the lever and the printer thinks the lever is not all the way home.Anyone Have Problems with Toner for Brother Fax/Copier/Printers?
The yield on a genuine Brother TN350 toner is up to approx. 2,500 pages*


The yield on a genuine Brother starter toner (it comes with the machine)is up to approx. 1,500 pages*


* When printing letter or A4 size paper at 5% print coverage


Much more toner will be used than normal when making copies or prints with graphics such as web pages.





Note: Toner life expectancy will vary depending upon the type of your average print job eg, graphics, text, web pages, resolution, contrast etc. Also, you should wait to unpack a new toner cartridge until immediately before you install it in the machine. If a toner cartridge is left unpacked for a long period of time, the toner life is shortened.

Brother printer toner refill.?

Is it easy to refill the toner cartridge for a Brother laser printer model HL-2140?


Where to find the toner and how to fill it?Brother printer toner refill.?
yes and no. it is easy to fill the toner but if it is the original toner which came with the printer, they deliberately leave out a $4 starter gear which is needed to regulate the amount of charge going to the drum. Without this gear, the copies will come out too light and be nearly useless. I threw out two of these printers until I came across Northbay Toner who explained this to me and provided what I needed. I now have two Brother lasers working well on $5 refills. For more info, see http://ccs-digital.com/northbay.htmlBrother printer toner refill.?

Is there any shrtcuts to go forward with the same toner?I replaced my inktoner TN 350 in my brother MFC 7420 printer. Still it shows Toner life end. Any thing to do ?
Hi,





Is this a remanufactured toner? If it is it all depends on if the company you bought from replaced the chip in the toner and if they used the a high quality chip. Sometimes they will not replace it, or they use one that will work but with an error every time you go to print.





Either way you can try and power cycle the printer. Please turn off your computer and printer. Unplug the printer for 1-minute and then turn everything back on.





If that doesn't work, return the cartridge to where you bought it from. If it is a genuine brand Brother cartridge, contact them directly and they will replace it for you.





You can find high quality replacement TN30's here, or buy the genuine Brother TN350 here for cheap.





http://store.express-inks.com/category_s鈥?/a>I replaced my inktoner TN 350 in my brother MFC 7420 printer. Still it shows Toner life end. Any thing to do ?
Yes, you will need to get its chip reset or buy and replace the chip.





If your cartridge is what is called a ';starter cartridge'; i.e. if it is


what came in with your printer then it can be reset by this 3 dollar


device:


http://www.inkfilling.com/toner-refill-B鈥?/a>





Otherwise chips alone are not available currently in the market


(although they may be soon)





In that case what you can do is buy a new cartridge and then


refill BEFORE it goes to 10% full i.e. before it gives you the toner


life end message. If you do that I believe it can go on with toner


refills a few times.





Hope this helps!

My Brother MFC8460N has toner dust around the toner area. What does that mean? And how do I clean it?

toner dust is left when the printer is printing. usually this is no big deal. you can clean it with a lint free cloth. canned air will just relocate it and leave toner dust where it doesn't belong.





however - if there is a ton of dust, it means that the cartridge has blown and needs replaced. it also means that you may need to clean the entire machine. you can do this fairly easily, or you can call a printer repair company to do this for you, but they will charge you.





good luck.
