How many pages does it print?

Prints up to 9,000 pages measured according to ISO/IEC 19798 with 5% coverage. This is the same methodology used by Brother for its original TN881XL TN821XL cartridge, so the comparison is honest.

How is it installed?

Turn off the printer and open the front door.
Identify the four CMYK cartridges by color or label.
If your model separates toner and drum, remove the assembly and separate the cartridge from the drum (do not touch the green roller).
Remove the used cartridge, shake the new one 5 times, and remove the tab.
Insert the cartridge into the correct color-coded position.
Close the lid, turn on the printer, and wait for chip synchronization (typically 60 seconds).

Will I lose my printer's warranty?

Pursuant to Directive (EU) 2024/1799 on the right to repair (in force July 31, 2026), the use of compatible cartridges does not affect the manufacturer's warranty.
