Wrong Cartridge selected by printer software

Brother software running on my computer incorrectly led to 730 toner, when I actually needed 850. I had opened the package before realizing it wouldn't fit. Brother gave me a lot of pushback about returning it for credit, but finally relented. Reason for replacing Brother cartridge prematurely was that it was leaking messy black powder onto printing. Third-party cartridge was much less expensive, less than half the cost, and is working great.

You will not get close to 1200

Starter cartridge lasted 785 pages at 4.75% (printing shipping labels 12mos) after hitting continue mode for 3 months. This TN730 has printed 844 pages at 4.43% and has been on continue mode for a couple months. Won’t get many more pages that will be scannable. You can see your output by hitting menu start menu, (see 0) hit up button, go to maintenance 77. It’ll print your report.

Brother TN730 Mono-Black Toner Cartridge

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 !

Disappointed

I bought the laser printer because I'd had bad experience with ink jets. The printer itself was relatively inexpensive. It has worked well, produces nice printouts, had a nice scanning feature, works well as a wireless machine, and is reliable. My disappointment came with the low number of overall printouts before the toner ran out. These cartridges do NOT seem to last as long as the manufacturer claims (I have seen numerous reviews that confirm this). The lower cost of the printer is made up for in the cost of the printer cartridges. I can't fault the company for recouping the loss in the reduced price of the printer, but would prefer they were more forthcoming about the actual page yield per cartridge.

Stated page yields for genuine Brother cartridges are based on the ISO testing standards. The number of pages that can be printed with a cartridge is affected by several factors, including paper size, number of pages per print job, amount of print on each page, font size, and print content (graphics, charts, etc.). Print jobs with large text fonts, graphics, charts, and/or large amount of solid coverage (black or any given color) will use much more toner and will shorten the life of the toner cartridge.

ink

The amount of pages it says it will print is not accurate. But I guess serious overestimates of page rates is par for the course with computer ink sales. Hard not to feel ripped off though.

The Toner doesn't last long

I bought a brand new Brother printer and I believe I only printed less than 400 pages and now the printer stop working and ask me to replace the toner. Great printer, but it really cost lots of money to replace toner for it.

We understand that you are unhappy with the Brother TN-730 toner cartridge and we'd like to help. The Brother TN-730 toner cartridge yields approximately 1,200 pages based on the ISO/IEC 19752 testing standards. The number of pages that can be printed with a cartridge is affected by several factors, including paper size, number of pages per print job, amount of print on each page, font size, and print content. Print jobs with large text fonts, graphics, charts, and/or large amount of solid coverage will use much more toner and, naturally, will shorten the life of the toner cartridge. If you feel you have printed less pages than advertised, feel free to contact Brother Customer Service directly at https://www.brother-usa.com/brother-support

Not Happy! TN730 Toner Low Pages

In October 2021, I purchased MFC-L271DW as a replacement for a Brother MFC that I had had for several years. The new Brother MFC came with TN730 toner (up to 1,200 pages.) After 675 pages, we get low toner warning. Very disappointing.
