This multipack contains 4 toner cartridges, including, compatible Brother TN-241 black, TN-245 cyan, TN-245 magenta, TN-245 yellow. All these high-quality toner cartridges are capable of providing crisp and clear texts and images output at minimum running cost.
This super saving multipack offers you almost 60% lower prices than the original Brother toner multipack. Not only that, these cartridges are capable of providing a lot more print volume than the originals. The compatible black Brother TN-241 laser toner is capable of producing approximately 2500 pages and the colour compatible Brother TN245 toner cartridges are capable of producing 2200 pages each at 5% of conversion rate. This also reduces the yearly printing budget of your office/home to next to negligible.
Buying these cartridges also save you from the expenses of individual replacements, as the bulk price of these cartridges goes as low as 70% and cut shorts your printing budget in a surprising manner.
Even with the low cost, the quality of these compatible Brother toner cartridges is never compromised. The reason behind this low cost is, we, at Printer Ink Cartridges, buy these cartridges in bulks from the third-party manufacturers which lower down their actual costs.
The another attractive fact, that would make you like these cartridges, is their eco-friendly nature. Buying these compatible Brother TN241 laser toner and Brother TN245 toner cartridges altogether would help you save the environment from the tons of plastic waste created by printer cartridges.
These cartridges are the previously used original Brother toners which instead of throwing in the garbage, were collected and remanufactured. The third party manufacturers collect these old cartridges and send them to factories for cleaning, repairing (in the case of any damage), refilling, and repackaging for reselling. All these remanufactured Brother cartridges are refilled with ISO standard premium inks that are as good as the originals.

SECTION 3: Firefighting Measures of TN241 and Brother TN245 Toner Cartridges
3.1. Extinguishing media
| Suitable extinguishing media | Extinguish preferably with dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray, foam. |
| Unsuitable extinguishing media | Do not use water jet. |
3.2. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture: May form explosible dust clouds in air.
3.3. Advice for firefighters: Do not use high-pressure water in order to prevent creating a dust cloud and spreading fire dust. Use appropriate respirator for carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. It is recommended to wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) during the attack phase of firefighting operations and during cleanup in enclosed or poorly ventilated areas immediately after a fire. Personnel not having suitable respiratory protection must leave the area to prevent significant exposure to toxic combustion gases from any source.
SECTION 4: Accidental Release Measures
| Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures | Avoid generation of dust. Do not breathe dust. A suitable dust mask or dust respirator with filter type A/P may be appropriate |
| Environmental precautions | Prevent substance entering sewers. Washings must be prevented from entering surface water drains. |
| Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up | Sweep the spilt toner or remove it with a vacuum cleaner and transfer into a sealed container carefully. You need to sweep slowly to minimize generation of dust during cleanup. If a vacuum cleaner is used, the motor must be rated as dust explosion proof.
Potential for very fine particles to be taken into the vacuum only to be passed back into the
environment due to pore size in the bag or filter. |

| Eye contact | No information available. |
| Skin contact | No information available. |
| Ingestion | Acute LD50 < 2000 mg/kg (Method OECD#420) |

| Carcinogenicity | Carbon Black: In 1996, the IARC reevaluated carbon black as a Group 2B carcinogen (possible human carcinogen). This classification is given to chemicals, for which there is inadequate human evidence, but sufficient animal evidence on which to base an opinion of carcinogenicity. The classification is based upon the development of lung tumors in rats receiving chronic inhalation exposures to free carbon black at levels that induce particle overload of the lung. Studies performed
in animal models other than rats did not show any association between carbon black and lung tumors. Moreover, a two-year cancer bioassay using a typical toner preparation containing carbon black demonstrated no association between toner exposure and tumor development in rats.

SECTION 11: Refilling
Before starting the refilling process of Brother TN241 laser toner and Brother TN245 toner cartridges you should gather the required tool to refill these Brother toner cartridges. You can buy a kit from the online retailers or from the market as per your convenience.
You need to arrange:
- Toner hole making tool
- Duct tape or hole plug
- Toner bottle
- Funnel cap
- Protective gloves
Cover the surface by covering it with the newspaper or paper sheet to secure the surface from the permanent stains.
Plug in the toner hole making tool for 3-4 minutes. Use it to create a refilling hole on the Brother TN241 laser toner about one inch right of the chip. Be patient while using the hole making tool, do not force it on the cartridge to make the refilling hole. The tool is designed to create use safely and securely.
Once you have created a refilling hole, empty the old cartridge remaining toner on your waste bin. Now place the funnel cap to the toner bottle and attach the toner bottle on the refilling hole.
Fill the toner powder safely into the empty toner until you see bubbles appear or ink is stopped around the hole, the cartridge is full. After it, do not forget to cover the refilling hole with duct tape or hole plug and put the cartridge back in your machine.
Repeat this process to refill the each Brother TN245 toner cartridge.
Printer continues to display the message "Toner Low" / "Replace Toner" / "Toner Ended" even after installing a new cartridge?
If you have recently replaced your Brother TN241 laser toner/Brother TN245 toner cartridge and the printer still shows the low ink error. There can be one of these reasons:
1: The toner is not installed properly- Turn off the printer and take out the toner cartridge.
- Check if you haven’t left any packaging material on the cartridge. If yes then remove it. Check and remove the sealing tape of the toner.
- Reinstall the toner and turn the printer on. The error should be disappeared after this, if not continue with the next step.
2: Clean the corona wire
This issue may have occurred because the corona wire has become dirty. While installing the toner be careful that you don't touch the corona wire. An unclean corona wire affects the print quality and sometimes prompt the printer to display low ink or similar errors. To get rid of the errors, you need to take out the toner and clean the corona wire.
3: Update the firmware to the latest version
If all the above method does not work then you might need to download the latest version of firmware on your PC and run a scan.
You can find the latest version for the firmware on the download section of Brother’s official site.
Go to the Firmware Update Tool in the Downloads section, check detail information to identify the firmware version. If the firmware version of your Brother machine is earlier than the latest version, update the firmware. Follow the installation instructions on the download page.
After the update reset and restart the printer. Reconnect the printer to the PC and start printing. The error should be resolved by now.
