How to Reset the Toner in Your Brother Printer

Do you have a Brother printer that's telling you that the toner is low or empty? Don't worry, you can reset the toner counter and keep using your printer until the toner cartridge is actually empty.

To reset the toner in your Brother printer, follow these steps:

• Turn off the printer and open the front cover.
• Then turn the printer on.
• The printer will display “Cover is open” or “Close cover”, then press the 1 key to display the Reset menu.
• Locate the correct toner option to reset and select it.
• If performed correctly the printer will display “Accepted“.

Here are some tips for resetting the toner in your Brother printer:

• Make sure that the printer is turned off before you open the front cover.
• If the printer is still displaying the “Cover is open” message after you close the front cover, press the 1 key again.
• If you are not sure which toner option to select, consult your printer's manual.
• If you have a Brother printer with multiple toner cartridges, you will need to reset each toner cartridge individually.
