As good as the original Brother toner Mar 04, 2010 Replaced my empty toner on my Brother 5250-DN. You can't tell the difference with the original Brother toner (except that this one is much cheaper!).
Go for it, at this price it is a no brainer.

Good Deal Feb 03, 2010 This toner cartridge works fine in my Brother 8460N. It compares favorably with what I could get from the local office store at four times the price.

Outstanding value, especially for draft output Nov 24, 2009 I don't use this printer for presentation quality output, so I wasn't too concerned about matching the quality with the OEM cartridge. I use it for drafts, printing receipts, etc.. That said, I did compare some of my output from the original cartridge with this and the difference is so negligible as to be a non-issue for my use. Since the price was only 1/3 of the OEM cartridge, I think it's a bargain. As others have said, if I were using the output for presentations where I needed the sharpest output possible, I might take a closer look. For me, and my particular usage, it's 5 stars.
Update: After about 5 months of use, I've run into a couple of problems: First, the toner light came on again after about a month, even though the cartridge was new and had only printed less than 100 sheets of text. Second, after about 3-4 months with the toner light on (and less than 500 copies printed), the toner light went from blinking to solid and the status light went red, indicating that toner was completely gone. Apparently, the HL-5250DN uses a gear to gauge toner usage and the mechanical stop had been hit on this cartridge, fooling the printer into thinking it was out of toner. After messing around with several "fixes" found on the Internet, my printer won't work at all now. I am going to get a real Brother cartridge and will see if that fixes the problem. I'll post the result here in a subsequent update.
Excellent and cheap Nov 02, 2009 Instead of spending over two times the amount for a "real" brother toner, get one of these. It works perfectly.

Don't order from "Abacus24-7" Oct 29, 2009 I had the same problem that another reviewer had - I ordered from "Abacus24-7", and they didn't send the right cartridge. Unfortunately, I trusted them and set the cartridge aside until it was needed, and now it's too late to return it. Amazon won't even allow me to leave seller feedback, which makes no sense.
This might work from another supplier, but don't order from "Abacus24-7".
