Digital camera reviews of Brother TN580 High Yield Black Toner Cartridge
Digital camera Review: A Great Toner Cartridge, A Very Poor Choice for Spacefighting
Summary: 4 Stars
This cartridge works very well and lasts a LONG time if you are printing with it, but it DOESN'T work at all as a cold fusion power unit in an Yrolian space fighter. It can barely push the gravitronic stabilizers, much less feed the 45GW phase-pulse laser capacitor banks.
Get the TRAM-89 "Volken" cold fusion powerplant with the vent-blade cryocooling, instead. Save this cartridge for printing only.
Digital camera Review: A Trick to extending yield 33-50%
Summary: 4 Stars
This cartridge will disable your printer once it (the cartridge) tells your printer it's empty. The cartridge has a window that is closed (blocked) by toner. This window runs through the cartridge from one side to the other. When the toner is full, the window is blocked, when the toner is seemingly empty, a laser is able to shine through the cartridge one side to the other thus signaling to the printer to shut down for cartridge replacement. I have found that when you obstruct this window with a simple piece of masking tape, you will have at least 33-50% more toner left. I'll leave any manufacturer motive speculation up to you.Digital camera Review: A great purchase!

This is the first time I have had to replace the cartridge in my Brother MFC-8460N, which has, so far, proven to be the best and most reliable multi-purpose printer I have owned over the last two decades.
I am a rather diligent shopper, always looking for the best "value" (that's the place where price and quality intersect!). After checking out local sources for both new and remanufactured cartridges, and intensive research online, this was, by far, the sweetest deal anywhere.
I was able to obtain this long-life cartridge, new in the box, for only five dollars more than the prevailing Cartridge World refilled price and/or otherwise available remanufactured price. This was also 30% or more less expensive than the Big Box retail price.
A great price and very prompt shipping made this a Great Purchase!
Digital camera Review: Another trick if the black tape over the holes does not work
Summary: 4 Stars
TN580 cartridge in Brother HL-5250DN.
To get more life from my cartridge when the toner light came on, I tried the black tape over the holes method.
That did not work.
So I googled to find a solution that would work and found that there is a gear on the left side of the cartridge at the upper right that will lock the cartridge and turn on the toner light when it thinks the cartridge life is done.
If the black tape does not work for you, try resetting the "flag gear" which involves removing two screws and resetting that gear.
You may need to google this as the only thing I found was a pdf that showed pictures on how to do that - the url would not copy.
Best of luck.
Digital camera Review: Be careful.

My printer was broken due to the cartridge I ordered. Although the price is competitive, it may be better to pay more to buy cartridges at real office items shops to avoide mechanical troubles.
