Page yield expectations for TN349 toner
Brother rates TN349 toner cartridges at 6,000 pages for each colour (black, cyan, magenta, and yellow) under ISO/IEC 19798 testing standards based on 5% page coverage. High colour density or graphics heavy printing reduces actual page output.

| TN-349C | Standard | Cyan | 6,000 | $0.046 |

Cost Per Page = Total Cartridge Price ÷ Page Yield (at 5% coverage). Prices based on Genuine cartridges.
Choosing between genuine and compatible TN349 cartridges
Compatible TN349 toners provide a cost-effective alternative for daily office printing while maintaining standard 6,000-page output. Under Australian Consumer Law, using compatible cartridges does not void your printer warranty. Read our genuine vs compatible cartridge guide to evaluate options for your workplace.
Stocking strategy and fast shipping
For heavy text printing, replacement black toner cartridges are required most frequently. Workgroups producing frequent full-colour marketing material should keep a complete CMYK set on hand. Compatible TN349 options are covered by a money-back performance guarantee. Review our returns policy for complete coverage details. Free delivery applies on all orders over $99. All orders ship rapidly from warehouses in Perth, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, and Adelaide. Browse our full range of Brother toner cartridges.
Pro Tip
Because colour laser printers perform automated calibration cycles during idle periods, keeping the printer powered on rather than cycling main power daily reduces unnecessary background toner consumption.
Match Your Printing Habits to the Right Brother TN-349 Toner Cartridge Pack
If all your colours are running low, the 4-Pack TN-349 Genuine (from $942.57) covers every colour in one order and qualifies for free delivery.
If only one colour has run dry, there's no need to replace the rest - a single Genuine TN-349BK cartridge (from $138.56) is the lowest-cost way to keep printing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do TN349 cartridges include the drum unit?
No, Brother laser printers use a separate drum unit and toner cartridge system. The TN349 toner cartridge contains only the powder reservoir and clips directly into the separate drum assembly.
Why are TN349 black and colour toners rated for the same page yield?
Brother engineered the TN349 series as a balanced ultra-high-yield system where each colour cartridge holds enough toner powder to achieve 6,000 pages at standard 5% coverage, matching the black toner capacity.
Can I replace just one colour cartridge when it runs empty?
Yes, each TN349 colour operates independently. When cyan, magenta, or yellow runs out, you only need to replace that specific cartridge while leaving the remaining operational cartridges in place.
Is TN-349 the same as TN349?
Yes, TN-349 and TN349 refer to the exact same Brother toner cartridge series. The hyphen is simply a formatting variation used in product titles, while printer software and physical cartridges represent the exact same component.
