Brother Mfc-L3750cdw L3770cdw L3745cdw No Toner Error with Full Cartridges

This video explains why your Brother MFC Printer or HL-L3230cdw printer is not recognising the Toner in the printer and displays a "No Toner" Message despite your cartridges being Full or Half Full. Applies to L3750cdw L3770cdw L3710cw L3745cdw L3510cdw L3230cdw L3270cdw L3210cw L3730CDN . Tips/Gratitude (Copy & Paste -Don't Click!) www.paypal.me/fixitfast

Thank you for this video and God bless. I had a non genuine toner that was not recognized and google directed me here. I removed the chip from another non genuine toner that my printer was recognizing and used it to fix the other one. Super. By the way my model is MFC - L3730CDN so if you want you can add it to your list in the description. Kind regards.

man what a great tip! that worked like a charm

[@ChristopheSPIREAT]

Thank you for this great tips. When changing the chip with one from another non-genuine cartridge, does it have to come from the same color one ?

[@Defcon2000]

Thank you, great video! 1. At 0:45 you mention that on Brother printers without a full colour screen there's also a way to find out which of the four toners has a bad chip. I assume you mean by looking at the "Brother Status Monitor" (part of the "Brother Utilities", a software that came with your printer drivers), right? I think the Brother Status Monitor tells you which of the four colours the printer doesn't like. 2. Would you advise people who use non-genuine toner cartridges to install new printer firmware updates, or rather not? I'm not sure... on the one hand firmware updates might fix important stuff maybe... on the other hand I guess that new firmware versions also bring a risk of disabling / locking out old non-genuine toner cartridge chips. (I've heard some other printer manufacturers sometimes do that with new firmwares, but I'm not sure if Brother also does this.)

Great help Great vidio God Bless I think that says it all.

[@dwr4992]

Hi Terry. Another great and helpful video. Thanks! Early in the vid you said you were going to advise how owners of the non colour LCD model (L3510cdw) could identify which toner was faulty because it's a bit more difficult, but then you never did... Or did i miss it? Thanks, D

Where i can buy the ships pls help ?!

[@user-yv9vn1wg2c]

I have ordered cartridges, but they do not have the same fitting for the chip as the brother chip, so could not do this. Can you please recommend where to get the compatible cartridges that match the brother chip fitting?

[@Gadada876]

After update firmware, it shows no toner 😣, your method worked, i took out the chip replace the battery didnt work, so I replace with another chip from old cartige(after market) ,there is no battery on the chips ,but it worked.

[@iAwaisKhan]

Hi, I have a L8690CDW & just randomly it says magenta is empty (it was only been in like 2 weeks ago) so I’ve replaced it with another magenta & it continues to say it’s empty when I know it’s not. Could you please suggest something?

[@deltakilo6077]

Clarification please re turning off power. Turning off at the wall I understand will kill all power to the printer. Does turning power off with the power button on top near the display panel also cause the chip battery to go flat? On a lot of modern appliances, the power switch just puts appliance into 'standby' mode and still draws a tiny current.

[@TerryJonesPrinterRepairs]

Off is off, dead, deceased, pushing up the daisies. It becomes an ex printer cartridge chip.

[@deltakilo6077]

@@TerryJonesPrinterRepairs Well that has knobs on it. Printer manufacturers really do push the limits to 'decency' and keep us held by our short and curlies to keep their profits rolling The great 'throw away society' 😠

need re-programmable chips.. it's time for the hacking community to stand up for the customer!

[@1nf3c7]

I changed the chips on all 4 , red still having issues , any tips ?

[@TerryJonesPrinterRepairs]

Whatch the video again from start to finish

[@dindin4072]

So if i understand correctly, this printer should never ever be turned off? Just searching for a new printer and this realy doesn't look good to me.

[@TerryJonesPrinterRepairs]

Then you need an old printer, and an old printer technician to maintain it.. This is how they all work going forward.

[@dindin4072]

@@TerryJonesPrinterRepairs Well... I'm still using HP 6500W (14900 pages printed), HP already removed all drivers from it's page, scanning to computer is now a bit problematic, a few days ago paper feeder broke a gear (clasic on this printer) so i glued it back... It still work's, but i will soon need something else. Printing up to 150 pages per month. Honestly said this kind of "feature" when printer has a power button but is's not supposed to be turned off is realy strange for me.

[@TerryJonesPrinterRepairs]

@@dindin4072 the 6500w isn't even the same printer class group as the L3750. The same class is the MFC-J5340dw, that said it still outranks the current HP equivalent on features but mainly speed of print and cost of cartridges.

[@dindin4072]

@@TerryJonesPrinterRepairs Thank you for answering.

[@TNM001]

hm..but the chips only allow 1 reset, isn't that right? thats what stopped me from getting this printer, huge toner waste.

[@TerryJonesPrinterRepairs]

It's not a HP Samsung or Epson printer. The chips work completely different to how they work. You can reuse the chip over and over and over if it is a genuine brother chip. You can reuse a non-genuine chip several times till it's battery fails. You have to make sure you keep the toner delivery on the Dev roller uniform otherwise the serial number on the chip gets flagged as bad. There is no toner waste when you know what your doing.

[@TNM001]

@@TerryJonesPrinterRepairs so, all the reports that the keycombo to reset the toner only works once...are fake? that would be a peasant surprise. but somehow i think all the reports of firmware 1.59 screwing this method up...are not some conspiracy. in any case...alot of trouble to go through to fight this error on a regular basis.

[@TerryJonesPrinterRepairs]

@@TNM001 There is no "RESETTING" to do on brother chips, They do not function like other printer manufacturers chips. They do not store cartridge toner/ ink levels the printer stores the cartridge chip serial number.

[@gbxx6692]

Brother is becoming like other printer companies screwing customers out of 3rd party toners! Don't upgrade firmware... stay on stock firmware. DRM sucks! There will form a new market to unflag the chip/change the serial number or hack the firmware...
