..........that needs a new Brother TN 2050 Toner/Cartridge.
Your cartridge numbers and prices don't match up. If you've got an HL-2040, the list price of the TN-350
Bushfiva ......... first of all my apology - finger trouble - I need a TN 2025 not the 2050, but certainly not the TN-350. My prices were quoted from a search of NZ suppliers on the Internet yesterday, the first was NZ$85 + 15% gst + postage, but a compatible at $39.99. free delivery. "Trade-me" offered a compatible with a starting price at $25.99 with 4 days bidding still to go, but I wouldn't touch that with a barge pole, at least the Internet store is accountable if things go wrong.
After writing I visited the Warehouse ( local WalMart/Tesco type store ) and they didn't have my model number, but had many others and the cheapest was $123. Sadly they were offering 2 for 1 in yesterdays New Year Sale so I missed out due Nil Stock
I hadn't considered toner dust everywhere, so I guess a 'real' one is the way to go, and as mentioned, it isn't as if one has to buy one every day, or even every year at my rate of use !
Thanks guys.
