Can you refill toner for Brother printer?
Today, it’s not worth the trouble to refill a toner cartridge. It’s possible, but messy, and often results in lower quality print if the toner isn’t distributed in the cartridge. Also, many toner cartridges would need their chip replaced or reset and neither of those is easy for the casual user.
Before the days of reliable compatible options, it was certainly worth thinking about refilling toner cartridges, but these days the best way to save money is to buy compatible cartridges.
