Save Money! - BROTHER Printer Cartridge Tip

 


Here is a real MONEY SAVING TIP that can SAVE YOU A LOT OF MONEY on Brother Printer Toner & Ink Cartridges.

This works very well........ we do it ourselves! You wouldn't expect a printer cartridge supplier to be giving these tips, but if we can save you some money... why not!

With many Brother toner and ink printer cartridges, when the printer notifies you that it has run out of toner or ink, there is often a lot (15% to 20%) still left.

Brother TN155 Toner Cartridge BROTHER TN155BK Sensor Hole

Looking at the right hand side of the printer cartridge as you stand in front of the printer (or the non-gear side), you will see a clear plastic circle with a hole in the middle.

Simply place a small piece of black electrical tape over that hole (or colour it with a black marker pen) and the cartridge will be good for another 500 to 1000 pages.
If you do incur any problems getting this to work for your printer cartridges, try the following link for additional suggestions.

Basically, the printer reads the toner levels through that hole and you are suggesting that there is plenty more toner in the cartridge.

Remember that when the print next starts to fade (after using the tip) to change the cartridge quickly to avoid any damage to the drum. The ink cartridges operate on a similar principle, in this case you can colour the side / front of the cartridge with black marker pen and away you go.

We always recommend having a spare set of cartridges, however, this tip can get you out of trouble on a Sunday night with homework due on Monday; and save you money!
