 GARBAGE February 18, 2008

My drum unit lasted for only 3000 pages approximately . Replaced it with another one lasted even less number of pages. I will try not to buy a brother machine again.
 Extend Toner Life (i.e, avoid getting ripped off) January 26, 2008

The cartridge that this drum holds will refuse to let you print after a certain time, alleging that the toner life is ended.
This will fly in the face of the evidence of crisp pages, with evidently a decent amount of toner left. This is not like the old days, where the pages continue to print, and the print quality degrades as toner dissipates. Nope, this is a "We'll decide for you when you go get another cartridge" move by the manufacturer.
Countermeasures against this ploy:
1. Shake cartridge, replace
2. After a while, #1 won't work. Then, open cover, Options, *00, close cover
2. After a while, #2 won't work. Then, get a black Sharpie and cover the laser window on the non-gear side of the cartridge.
Should get you closer to getting your money's worth.
 Consistent quality January 14, 2008
The toner carts. Amazon supplies for my Brother MFS 7820N are always delivered promptly, performed as intended, and have been completely reliable. They have been OEM products, not off-brands.

bought original toner and drum at amazon for 130 including shipping
i could have paid 194 at office max including tax. saved 34%
I could have paid $70 for a remanufactured 30 toner+shipping. not much savings for something that you know will work

Drum With a Short Life October 27, 2007
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
The DR-350 drum that came with my original MFC Brother printer lasted about a year. I use this printer in a home office, with a moderate amount of printing. Since replacing the drum unit (twice), the life of the drum has been less than acceptable. Even with a new (not reburbished) drum, black streaks appeared on all of my printed pages. With the new drum installed, the printer unit message still indicated a new drum was needed.
This drum also comes as a complete unit with the TN-350 toner. I tried that as well, with the same results, PLUS I received intermittent messages that the toner was low only a week after installation, with minimal use.
Might be a drum unit problem; might be a printer problem. Either something is wrong with sensors in the printer, or the drum units are poorly constructed. Can't tell which it is, but either way, makes for poor printing quality.
