I found the same cartridge cheaper else where. I found the same cartridge cheaper else where.

I purchased a multifunction printer and was surprised to see that after just 532 pages of printing, I was completely out of toner. The TN-730 advertises 1,200 pages per ISO Standards. However, ISO Standards are based on filling up only 5% of the page, which is the equivalent of a short email. So if you are printing anything that covers more than 5% of the page, you will likely get only 40% of the advertised page yield. Also, after a few changes of toner, some printers will require the additional purchase of a drum unit. These facts need to be disclosed to consumers so that they get fair value for money when purchasing your products. It is not fair to consumers to set expectations that will not be met. Treat your customers with respect and give them a decent value for the money they spend purchasing your products.

I concur with everyone else. Shocked to be buying my second toner cartridge in 5 months and I print no more than 100 a month maximum and no large print jobs. Even use the "save toner" setting when printing. Very disappointing because the printer is perfectly functional for my personal home use.

We have been using the same Brother printer for several years and have no issues with the machine's performance. We normally use the TN-760 cartridges. This time we ordered a TN730. It has been installed for 9 days and is already giving a low toner indication. We understand that how much toner is used per page determines how many pages it will print, but this is unacceptable for the amount of money charged. There's not near enough toner in the cartridge to justify the cost.

This toner does not yield 1200 pages. No where near. I probably get 500 pages max. The toner is expensive. I am only printing word and pdf documents. I am probably going to get a new printer and just donate this printer to goodwill or just use it for scanning.

Brother is "at your side" with their hand on your wallet. These toner cartridges are lucky to get to 300-400 pages, not 1,200 resulting in a page cost of approximately 10 cents per page printed with a standard 12 pt Arial font, with no bold, and no graphics/images. The TN-760 is little better at near twice the price. Brothers standard reply seems to be that their cartridge yield is based on ISO testing. If you perform a search for "iso 19752 test page" you be able to retrieve the ISO 19752 test-page to view/compare what you are printing to the test page and/or to conduct your own test if you like. Basically, how it works it the same test page is printed again and again until the pages fade or the printer automatically stops due to end-of-life detection. The underperformance of Brother’s high priced OEM consumables (toner cartridges) fuels the compatible toner aftermarket with cartridges which perform as well at a fraction of the cost, or fuels disposal of relatively decent Brother printers simply because they are simply too expensive to operate, even for several hundred copies, and leaves printing to be handled by cost effective non-Brother enterprise printers. Feel free to share this review.

Walmart price was competitive with all the other retailers, and, was available for immediate shipment whereas the others did not typically stock this item (probably because it is mono black toner cartridge. Arrived at local store with free pick up option in 3 or 4 days. Replacing the old cartridge was a snap; literally about 30 seconds after removal from the package. Powered the printer back up and didn't have to do anything else, the printer recognized the new cartridge and reset itself automatically. Easy peasy !

I am very disillusioned with this L2395DW printer experience that requires such expensive accessories. I agree with other one-star reviews here---disappointment. I had an HP ink cartridge color printer prior to this one, and I am going to invest in another HP and stop using this Brother, which I only purchased five months ago on 10/02/19. I'll be bankrupt buying accessories for the print capacity this printer has. HP printers are much more reliable and affordable.

I print the equivalent of 4 lines of text on a page, 12pt font. WAY less than an average full page of text. Starter cartridge (Prints 500 pages!) gave low print warning at 425 pages. If I were printing full pages, I'd have been out long ago. Very disappointing. No better yield than my 15 year old inkjet. What IS the ISO standard printed page? 3 lines?

Bought the Brother HL-L230DW on the advise of a friend and so far the printer has been great. What is not great is the TN730 cartridge...just started getting a Low Toner warning but according to the page counter on the printer I've only printed 153 pages yet the specs say that I should get 2000 pages. Even if I got 1000 pages I'd feel pretty good about the cartridge but 153 pages is just stupid...I might as well kept my inkjet printer at that rate. C'mon Brother...you can do better than this.
