ValueColorCompatible Toner Cartridge Replacement for Brother TN221 Black TN221BK Use with MFC-9130CW HL-3140CW HL-3170CDW HL-3180CDW MFC-9330CDW MFC-9340CDW (2 Black)

These toner cartridges work perfect and last for a long time. I change mine about every 3-4 months. I can't give an exact amount of pages I print in a month, but it's between 500 and 700. I started buying these cartridges as soon as my Brother toner ran out. I'm a new small business owner, so I have a very tight operating budget. I saved close to $200 and am VERY satisfied with the quality of color and how long they last. At the price, I don't worry about making printing mistakes or over printing.

I was skeptical about buying a non Brother brand of toner replacement cartridges for my laser printer, but decided to take a chance and buy this product. I have been very happy with this decision. The toner came well packaged, sealed in individual colors. Install was just like the Brother toner. I have been using it for about a month now and have had no problems whatsoever. This set of all four colors was only $41.99 whereas the original Brother set of four would have cost well over $200.00. I will definitely buy this product again and recommend it to anyone who needs Brother toner.

I just installed the black cartridge a couple of days ago; the original Brother cyan, magenta and yellow cartridges don't yet need replacing. The ValueColor cartridge fit the Brother carriage correctly and is working correctly; no complaints with this product. August 23, 2018: I installed the remaining 3 cartridges several days ago (cyan, magenta and yellow). The manufacture of these cartridgesappears equivalent to the original Brother pieces. I'm using these in a Brother MFC-9340CDW and again, the cartridges fit into the Brother carriages correctly and, at least so far, they are all working fine. Again, no complaints.

Good quality and affordable prices.

I have been very unhappy with the print quality of these cartridges and realized that I had replaced the 3 color cartridges but not the black cartridge. Once I replaced the black cartridge so that all of the installed cartridges were from ValueColor my prints were VERY GOOD and i am very pleased with the quality of my prints.My apologies for my initial feedback post with a negative comment. I will buy these again when the time comes to replace them.

I have used knock off cartridges before, but never again after this experience. These cartridges cost me a new printer. They worked fine for 2 years and then started leaking on the inside of the printer. First the pink one leaked, and I found pink powder all over the inside of the printer. This resulted in pink dots on my printed page. Next the yellow one started leaking - yellow powder all over the inside of the printer. I tried cleaning the printer. It was impossible to get the fine powder off. The printer was ruined. In the end, I had to buy A NEW PRINTER.

Updated review (12/16/2020):These cartridges worked very well for the first 8 months (see previous review below). Then, magenta specks began to appear at random locations on the pages. At 9 months I followed Brother's directions to clean the magenta drum. I found a lot of magenta toner sprinkled around various parts of the drum unit, and magenta toner stuck to the drum itself, all of which I carefully removed with cotton swabs and balls. Flawless printing resumed for a few days before the magenta specks returned. After several repetitions of this sequence, and putting up with magenta speckled prints for another couple of months I finally ordered a new set of cartridges from a different seller on Amazon. Before installing these I thoroughly cleaned the magenta drum again. Note: the other 3 drums were very clean. So far the new cartridges (from the different seller) work fine - no speckles. I'll post a review of these after I evaluate them for a few weeks.This printer gets fairly light use and the ValueColor cartridges still had many pages (I estimate much more than a year's worth) of toner left. So as a result of the magenta cartridge failure we were unable to get full use of the ValueColor investment. This did not happen with the previous ValueColor cartridges I bought on Amazon which I used until one became empty. I have changed my rating from 5 starts to two.Original reviewThey work great right out of the box. Just reset each color (takes 1 minute and done) and print. They last a long time. Only one watchout. We used to print on the backside of 4x6 photo prints (e.g., from Walgreens) just fine with the original Brother cartridges. Unfortunately, the ValueColor toner smears on the backsides of photo prints. ValueColor is great for everything else we do, including self publish children's laminated story books. Great price for great performance for nearly everything. Will definitely buy again.

As a generic toner, im pretty satisfied abt the quality of these toner, especially with the amazing price, cant say as same as brothers, but definitely worth the price. even better. clear and bright colors, it works great for printing flyers and schedules on my brother MFC 9130cw. btw a free mousepad comes with the package.
