I did some Googling and found the following suggestion at TechSupport Forum. Scroll down the page to see all entries and feedback. Hope this helps. Brother Laser Printers - Error Message "Toner Life End" Brother Laser Printers Error Message "Toner Life End" MFC-7440N MFC-8460N. Brother suggest taking the unit to a service center. Message doesn't go even after replacing BOTH Toner & Drum. Try this Open door press Clear/Back key press *00 press OK Do not choose anything for drum replacement. When drum replacement menu comes up, press the * and then 00, then press OK. This might well work for other Brother Laser Printers too Here is a link that might be useful: TechSupport Forum

Indeed, an antique thread resurrected. A number of misdirected answers, the OP was talking about a Brother monochromatic (ie black/gray) laser printer. Most laser toner cartridges are good for thousands of copies. Third party compatible toner cartridges bought from a reliable source (Staples, Office Max, etc) are excellent and cheap. A home/non business user who prints things frivolously is unlikely to have to spend much money on replacement toner cartridges. I've suggested before, I think it's much cheaper and easier to make the occasionally required color copies/prints/photos at Fed Ex or drug stores than to struggle with color ink jets at home. Or, for someone who frequently makes a small number of color pages, have a laser for daily use and restrict the color printer to color pages. All this equipment is cheap, it's the ink jet cartridges that are ridiculously expensive.

Well, my DS advised me to do what he does: buy bottles of toner refill on eBay. I followed his instructions and Googled my printer to find out the product number of the toner. Then I went looking for it on eBay. I found a guy with 100% positive feedback selling two refill bottles for $14.90, including shipping. My son said most cartridges can be refilled two or three times before print quality is compromised. He said the refill will last at least as long as a purchased cartridge.

Please help with deck stain color ideas.
