 | BROTHER DCP 7020 -"Toner Life End" Message by Delivery (edited 4/10/08 2:06 PM) reply | + / - | I'm getting Toner Life End message and I tried following the advice in another thread here to clear this message. The other thread indicates: (7/8/07 7:35 AM) open front cover, press options and start key.
I'm getting the "Toner Life End" message, however the steps to reset (per above) don't seem to work. I'm opening the toner front door, pressing OPTIONS button, then UP ARROW for YES. When I do this, it appears to be the YES reply to the REPLACED DRUM? question, but not for REPLACED TONER.
I keep getting the same results.
Is there a different way to reset this TONER LIFE END message??
...Mike

| Re: BROTHER DCP 7020 - by Anonymous (10/3/08 6:48 AM) reply | + / - | Didn't work. Still says Toner Life End. The printer is about 2 years old. I print maybe 1-2 times a month and only a few sheets of paper so I seriously doubt I'm out of toner. Surely this toner will last longer than this. New toner cartridges cost almost $70 and I got no where near $70 worth of print jobs out of this printer. There must be a way to reset or bypass this...If not then I'm pissed.

If your printer and toner are 2 years old, I think you're out of luck. You need a new toner cartridge, and to be safe, it should be a real Brother TN-350. Sorry.

I stuck a piece of cardboard where the reset gear should go and bingo it started priting again. i fooled it into thinking it had a new cartridge with the cardboard in the reset gear area.... omg how fun is this hackk..... hehe
