  • In this short guide I will take you through the process of resetting the toner level gear on a variety of Brother toner cartridges including the TN2010, TN2220, TN2010 and TN2220. This simple reset means that your printer will read the toner cartridge as being full of toner regardless of the actual toner level.
    Kind viewers have also informed us that this method works for TN420 and TN450 toner cartridges too!
    We hope you have found this video useful. Be sure to also keep up with us on Facebook (on. hZ1r4T) and Twitter (bit.ly/gtJNlw).

    still come back here every few years because I forget! suggestion for all: save to a playlist and name it something related to ink or toner! So you'll have this in the future!

    Great !!!!This the best video I have ever watched on refilling TN420/TN450 Bother Cartridges. This video explains clearly resetting of toner level gears. That is the most important part of refilling. I have troubles in resetting gears. I have learned and practice while watching this videos. Thanks a lot. Great job. It helps to millions of people around the world.

    Well lit, music almost inaudible instead of deafening and proper, clear, spoken instructions that make sense. All "instructional" RUclips videos should use this as a template.

      You do not have to go through all of that.
      Your printer has a websites setting in properties.
      go to the link and in settings and in (toner low) CHECK CONTINUE.
      It will come back and reset your printer to keep going on a toner low alarm.
      LOTS OF OTHER GOODIES IN THAT CONFIG SITE FOR YOUR VERY OWN PRINTER...

    Thank you so much for creating this video!!!!!

  • @SimonOliverGLD
    @SimonOliverGLD 9 лет назад

    thanks for this - other guides seem to ignore this critical step. I've even seen one that just says "set the gear in the correct position" with no detail or close-up, and completely ignoring the inner gear.

  • @mrseidelbast
    @mrseidelbast Год назад

    I just reset as described the TN 2010 cartridge for my Brother HL-2135W which was supposed to be empty. Now the status page shows the cartridge again at 100% capacity and I can print again without any quality loss. Thank you again for this tutorial. I am feeling so ripped of by Brother who program the obsolescence into the cartridge without real consideration if it's empty or full. Will report back with the number of additional pages I was able to print without changes the cartridge.

  • @LietSayri
    @LietSayri 9 лет назад +1

    Thank you! My printer wouldn't quit telling me to replace the cartridge with a new one, so I did this and it worked.

  • @tipperzack
    @tipperzack 8 лет назад +2

    Thank you your method really worked. Now my business can start working again.
    Also that little spring may need to be moved sightly to get the second gear to fit.

  • @Dan0943a
    @Dan0943a 8 лет назад +1

    Thanks for the HD video and the attention to detail! -This made me confident the gears were in place for my TN-450 cartridge! Had to cycle power and try the keypad sequences a few times, but the LCD display finally cleared the toner low message. BTW - it may seem like the big gear at the left side (when looking from the side of the cartridge) is jammed, preventing the gears from rotating, but that must be okay since it worked fine in the printer.

    • @techguy3507
      @techguy3507 6 лет назад

      Dan Keys, there are also instructions for telling the printer that you have a new toner cartridge. Open front, press CLEAR, ignore the instructions for telling it that you replaced the drum and instead enter *00. That will tell the printer you have a new cartridge.

    This just worked on my Brother TN-450 cartridge as well. Though my "notch" thingy was not pointing to 11:00, I still turned it to 5:00 as he did and it was fine. Everything else seemed the exact same. Thanks much!

    i often wondered if I WAS GETTING the FULL life of my cartridges - I HAVE HAD A GET TONER ready message for months and I am still using the same cartridge - before i reorder - i am going to try this and see if this doesn't save me some money - as i just gibbly hand over 17.95 plus 8.95 ship per cartridge - gets expensive - and i am looking at the roller and i see that it feels fuller than the machine is telling me - I FEEL HOODWINKED - WHAT A RACKET ... THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO

    • @healyhouse
      @healyhouse 4 года назад

      IN ALL Fairness to Brother I have had the same printer since 2009 - for homeschooling and using the tn 2010 cartridges - i have replaced the drums and belts 1x and it is still going strong - love my printer ... i would buy another brother jet ink printer no hesitation as it has served me well

  • @techguy3507
    @techguy3507 6 лет назад

    This was a great tutorial. My printer, MFC-7360N, continued to tell me it was low on toner. I performed the following steps to tell the printer that it has a new toner cartridge. Open front, press CLEAR, ignore the instructions for telling it that you replaced the drum and instead enter *00. That will tell the printer you have a new cartridge. Error message about low toner went away. That guy has a great Alabama accent. 😉

    Just tried this on my Brother 7065DN and everything went as shown here. Printer is no longer beeping at me that ink is low so I'm assuming this will work. Going to do all my other cartridges that I kept and should be good for a long while. Brilliant, thank you so much for sharing and explaining this so well.

What a scam of brother trying to make us buy new cartridges when they are not even empty. I wonder how many prints I will get from each one after this reset? Any Idea? Big Cheers

    Thank-you for this! I was having a problem with a cartridge where after resetting the flag gear and putting it back into the printer, the flag gear would pop back to the 'empty' position and the printer would display a cartridge error. Once I realigned that second gear it worked like a charm.

    Thank you very much!

    • @RefreshCartridges
      @RefreshCartridges  10 лет назад

      Once your printer thinks the cartridge is empty it will continue to print in this range of printers. Resetting the toner gives you another estimates 1,00 pages from the cartridge (assuming you have the toner). We don't refill toners ourselves so I wouldn't feel comfortable advising in this instance.
