Excellent quality and yield
By JML on Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2015
I replaced the Linkyo toner after 2,713 pages. Considering 2600 is the advertised yield, I think this cartridge did very well. I did have a couple "Toner is low" messages pop up on the monitor. However resetting the cartridge through the on line printer interface got another couple hundred sheets printed. UPDATE: 7/12/2016 Adding additional info after testing over time. I replaced the TN450 cartridge with another LINKYO compatible on 11/5/15. AT that time my printer had printed 17837 pages. Next toner replacement was on 3/1/2016 and the printed page count was at 20550. So the LINKYO toner produced 2713 pages. Next toner replacement was on 7/12/16. Again put a new LINKYO toner in the printer and documented page count at 24290. So this time I got 3740 pages from the toner cartridge. I did deal with 3 "error" messages over this time indicating the toner needed replacement however I reset the machine 3 times using the following method (found by Googling "reset toner brother 2270"): [...] If your TN2230 – TN2250 toner counter on your HL-2130 HL-2240D HL-2250DN or HL-2270DW doesn’t reset when you install the cartridge, you may wish to try this procedure. Open the front cover and leave open while completing the following steps. Turn the printer off. Hold the ‘go’ button (or “start’ button) while turning the printer on. All panel lights should be on. Release the ‘go’ button (or “start’ button). Press the ‘go’ button (or “start’ button) 2 times. Pause. All panel lights should be on. Press the ‘go’ button (or “start’ button) 5 times. The toner light should be off (the error light may be flashing). The paper light should be on or flashing. Close the cover. The ready light should be the only light on. Note: This procedure has been tested on the HL2130 HL2240D HL2250DN and HL2270DW printer but may work on other printers using the TN2250 toner. I just now noticed print fading so after 3740 pages its time to replace the toner.

Returning to the "more expensive" Brother brand after comparing the number of papers printed and cost
By Avid Reader 101 on Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2017
Product has changed. It is not longer the same product as shown on the box. I have a HL2280DW printer and have used this toner product repeatedly in the past. I am changing my high review because the product is not longer the same. What I received in the mail was toner "TN-450D." The toner cartridge shape is different and it does not fit in my Brother laser printer. I contacted Amazon because the incorrect toner had been sent to me. Amazon quickly remedied the problem by sending me a new replacement. BUT, the second order is also for the same, incorrect toner cartridge. The toner that is now being sent does NOT look like the picture or work with the machines described. I am now shopping for a new replacement toner. "-( I am leaving my previous review below (in the event that LInkyo starts carrying the previous product.) After several Linkyo purchases, I am returning to the Brother brand. Here's my take on the Linkyo toner: The Good: 1.) It is easy to install and works well with my Brother. 2.) The price appears to be a bargain. The Not So Good: 1.) It is described as "high yield" but this does not equate to Brother's "high yield" toner. Do not expect this toner to last longer than a regular cartridge. Usually, I can get 1 to 1.5 reams of paper printed from one cartridge depending upon whether I am printing one or two-sided. I did not pay much attention to this until I noticed that I was purchasing toner much more frequently than normal. Once, I started paying attention, I realized that this less expensive toner was not really a better bargain. 2.) In the last box that I purchased, the second cartridge was a dud. I printed less than 100 pages (literally) and the toner ran out. Granted this has not happened to me before, but it was the final straw for me and Linkyo.
