Choosing between genuine and compatible options
Both genuine Brother toners and high-performance compatible cartridges are available for your printer. Under Australian Consumer Law, using compatible cartridges does not void your printer warranty. Compatible toners provide an economical alternative without compromising page yields or print clarity. Learn more about performance and guarantee standards in our genuine and compatible cartridges guide.
Transfer belts and waste toner management
In addition to toner cartridges, this printer relies on separate long-life components including the BU-100CL transfer belt unit and the WT-100CL waste toner bottle. The BU-100CL transfer belt unit is rated for up to 60,000 pages, outlasting up to 12 black toner cartridge replacements.
Best way to stock these cartridges
If you print mainly text documents, purchasing high-yield TN-155BK cartridges delivers the lowest cost per page. If you produce high volumes of colour graphics, opting for TN-155 multipacks ensures all shades deplete evenly. Premium compatible toners include a complete money-back guarantee under our simple returns policy if they fail to perform. Free delivery applies on all orders over $99. Orders ship directly from our fast dispatch warehouses in Perth, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide. Browse our full selection of Brother toner cartridges today.
Pro Tip
