I use this product for all incoming fax messages and occasional copying and the cartridge helps in having an available resource. With the changing technology, it is good to know that the replacement product is still available to buy.

I do not expect high quality copies from a FAX/Copier, however the Brother brand cartidges print results in a shaper matte finish. On the down side, I have experienced breakage and carbon bleed with the Brother brand cartidges. There may be more cartidge life from a Brother brand replacement but not enough to justify the cost.
The Staple brand does a fine job if you don't mind the glossy, shiny print. When I need a precise, crisp and profession copy, I use a laser or inkjet copier.
Summary: If your looking to save money, the Staples replacement is A+

    The PC401 for my brother FAX was easy to install. I send more Faxes than I receive. I usually have to buy one about every 1 1/2 - 2 years.
