Key Features Explained
-
Separate Drum & Toner System:
-
In these printers, the toner cartridge (TN-2355) and the drum unit (DR-2355) are separate.
-
The drum unit lasts for about 30,000 pages, while this standard-yield toner lasts for ~3,000 pages.
-
This design is more cost-effective as you replace the toner multiple times before needing to replace the drum unit.
-
-
Standard Yield for Higher-Capacity Printers:
-
Note that the “standard” yield for this series (3,000 pages) is equivalent to the high-yield capacity of the TN-2305 series. This indicates the printer is designed for a higher monthly workload.
-
A high-yield TN-2385 cartridge (approx. 6,000 pages) is also available for even higher volume needs.
-
-
Genuine Brother Quality:
-
Ensures optimal print quality, prevents potential printer damage, and maintains page yields.
-
Who is this for?
-
Owners of compatible Brother laser printers (see list below) whose black toner is low or empty.
-
Small to medium-sized businesses with moderate to high print volumes.
