Only lasted few weeks. used to last almost 1 year
I record dates when replacing cartridges. Previously I was able to get almost a year of use out of this 3 pack set of Cyan/Magenta/Yellow toner. But now I barely got 6 weeks. They have reduced the quality of toner. I am extremely disappointed.

Brother MFC-L8900CDW is awesome
I love brother laser printers and only use their toner. Mine is a color laser jet and is fast. Some think toner is expensive but it doesn't dry out like ink jet ink before it's empty.

Wonderful employee helped me find this
I came in looking for the 4 pack. Which Staples did not have in stock? I happened to see an employee walk by and asked her for some help. She went above and beyond explaining to me. How I could find it in the app? And telling me about the rewards program that Staples offers. She is a true gem ... I i wish could remember her name to give her proper credit... I was about...

The last drum did not last the 30,000 impressions.
While my printer is about six years old, my recent purchase was the third drum and I do not print 30K pages in two years. Even with the new drum in place, I still get messages to replace it. Not Good!

Horrible
We have ordered this ink several times due to it being the ink required for our printer. The yellow cartridges in particular have broken open and essentially exploded inside of our printer SEVERAL times. It creates a huge mess and disrupts our office from being able to complete their work as we have to dismantle our entire printer to *attempt* to clean high yield toner ...

Slow shipping
This is a great product. Staples sipping has gotten ridiculously slow. It should not take 11 days for delivery this includes 6 days for Staples to process the shipment.

Easy install drum unit
After the printer indicated it was in need, the drum unit was ordered and delvered a few days later. Super easy to install. The consumable costs of Brother are so much lower than other manufacturers. Dont waste time with third parties.
