Brian, I found that using a rebuilt toner cartridge from Office Depot
in my Brother printer would work OK.

The only printer brand Pulsar says to stay away from is Brother:
"To date we have discovered only the BrotherĀ® brand of printers to be
incompatible with our system. They use a completely different type of
toner formulation requiring very high fusing temperatures."

If PnP's transfer method works at substantially higher temperatures
than Pulsar's, you may have a shot.
