Will Not Fit

Chips, Printer Messages & Installation

Installing: open the front cover and pull out the drum unit. Push down the green lock lever to release the empty toner from the DR229CL drum, gently rock the new cartridge side to side to spread the toner, remove the orange protective cover, and click it into the drum until it locks. Slide the green tab on the drum back and forth a few times to clean the corona wire, then reinstall.

Chip and supply messages: the chip comes pre-installed on the cartridge. If the printer shows a non-genuine supply notice, choose OK or Continue to keep printing. If the cartridge isn't recognized, remove it, make sure all packing material is off and reseat it firmly. See our guide to fixing a cartridge that isn't recognized.

Quality: Compatible, Newly Manufactured

Frequently Asked Questions

How many pages does the Brother TN229XXL cyan print?

About 4,000 pages, based on Brother's ISO/IEC 19798 rating for the original TN229XXLC at roughly 5% coverage.

Will TN229XXL fit my HL-L3280CDW or MFC-L3765CDW?

No. Brother lists TN229XXL only for the HL-L3295CDW, HL-L8245CDW, MFC-L3780CDW and MFC-L8395CDW. The other TN229 printers use the standard TN229 or high-yield TN229XL cartridges.

What is the difference between TN229, TN229XL and TN229XXL?

Yield. Standard is about 1,500 black / 1,200 color pages, XL about 3,000 / 2,300 and XXL about 4,500 / 4,000. They use the same DR229CL drum.

Can I replace one color at a time?

Yes. Each color is a separate cartridge, so replace only the one that is empty.

Is the drum included?

No. This is the toner cartridge only; it installs into the DR229CL drum unit already in your printer.

Will this void my printer warranty?

No. Under the U.S. Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, a manufacturer can't void your printer warranty just because you used a third-party supply. If a non-original supply directly caused damage, that specific repair might not be covered.
