I can second this -- the normal Brother toner doesn't seem to work. I refilled one of my old Brother cartridges with some toner I got off the net and that worked ok for the toner transfer. The refill instructions told you not to mix the toner and to make srue the old cartridge with 100% empty. I vacuumed out the old cartridge before refilling but I screwed up and let the little white cap seal on the bottle fall into the cartridge and now the cartridge clicks and parts of the page have gaps. I am comming up on another refill, so I will see what happens with the new toner. Fuse temp is not one of the things they specify on the aftermarket refills.
