3 Unpack the new toner cartridge. Place the used toner cartridge into the aluminum bag and discard it according to local regulations.

Caution

Wait to unpack the toner cartridge until immediately before you install it in the MFC. If a toner cartridge is left unpacked for a long period of time, the toner life is shortened.

Brother strongly recommends that you do not refill the toner cartridge provided with your MFC. We also strongly recommend that you continue to use only Genuine Brother Brand replacement toner cartridges (TN-530or TN-560). Using or attempting to use potentially incompatible toner and/or toner cartridges in your MFC may cause damage to the machine itself and/or it may result in unsatisfactory print quality. Our warranty coverage does not apply to any problem that was caused by the use of unauthorized third party toner and toner cartridges. To protect your investment and guarantee your print quality please continue to replace consumed toner cartridges with only Genuine Brother Branded Supplies.

4 Gently rock the toner cartridge from side to side five or six times to distribute the toner evenly inside the cartridge.
