Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Brother Black Toner Cartridge (TN-350)
Customer Review: TN350 doesn't work in the Brother HL-5250DN
Summary: 1 Stars
The HL-5250DN is a fine printer, but if you purchase it, don't purchase a TN350 cartridge as I did, relying on the Amazon representation that it will work. You'll find that the TN350 will not mate with the drum unit TN550 cartridge combo that comes in the printer. Maybe you can spring for a different drum unit (think another $80) and get that combo to work; I don't know. But the TN350 cartridge categorically won't work in a new HL-5250DN, unless you want to try your hand with a hacksaw. And the TN350 isn't heavy enough to make a good door stop.
To be fair, Amazon isn't alone in representing that the TN350 will work. The Brother user manual specifies the TN550 or TN580 (high capacity).
Customer Review: TN 350 "Sold by Amazon"
Summary: 5 Stars
I have read that some folks did not get the OEM (Brother Tn350....the Real McCoy) . I DID. Brother TN 350 in the Brother Box , sealed...new. There is a FREE Fed x shipping label to ship your old, used toner. If you buy from Amazon (sold and shipped from Amazon) and ever have an issue, Amazon will take care of it. I have always found Amazon to be more than fair. If you buy from a seller who mis-states or misrepresents a product I believe Amazon will stand behind you, the purchaser. The TN 350 toner was easy to install. Do use a large sheet of paper as toner is bound to get on things. And, I did do the "tape the hole/plastic viewer for more life and it works. Helps the budget.Customer Review: It's Just A Toner Cartridge
Summary: 4 Stars
A toner cartridge is just a piece of plastic filled with polyester powder, so you can't expect this thing to cure cancer, do your dishes or get your kids to take an interest in the magical world of reading books but you CAN exepct it to be deposited on the page by electrostatic action and then heat-fused to produce dots of varying shade of gray. It does this well.
But you can't use the toner as a pepper substitute and you can't use the cartridge in place of a secret ninja scroll filled with techniques for focusing the ki that has been passed down from 1000 years ago.
So don't expect too much beyond making prints and you won't be disappointed.
Customer Review: good item, will last you a while
Summary: 5 Stars
It's good toner that will last you a while. I just want to reiterate a tip someone else wrote in though. If you cover the holes on the side with electrical tape, you can 'trick' the printer into printing the rest of the toner that's left in the cartridge. Have you noticed when the printer says low on ink, the last page it printed out was still perfectly printed? It means you've still got toner left because the printer measures toner level by flashing a light into the holes, which is not at the bottom. I know this tip saved my butt when I was trying to print some last minute college papers as well as the difference between the store price and the price found here.Customer Review: Dear Brother, Go green(er) for a fifth star!
Summary: 4 Stars
Hey, a toner cartridge either works or it doesn't, and if the manufacturer's own cartridge doesn't work, you shouldn't buy printers from them. Brother's TN-350 cartridge works fine in my HL-2040 printer, and despite much searching I've not been able to find a better price than Amazon's. I've also got a Canon multi-function laser, so I know that Canon includes a pre-paid shipping sticker with each cartridge to recycle the old one with them. I know this isn't entirely altruistic on Canon's part, but it is greener than just throwing out the old one, as I had to do with the Brother. So five stars for the product minus one star for lack of recycling.
