Compatible / 3rd party toner, drum for laser printer?

[lxXXxl]

Anyone been using them regularly without issue? Or have horror stories? Any particular brand that is actually good quality?

Thinking whether to go that route for my mono laser printer.

Thanks! So even cheaper than what they're selling on qoo10 / sls?

have to see brand and model.... most of the time, overseas inclusive shipping are cheaper than local.

the most common problems i see is leaked toner and can't detect toner. No harm trying.....

For anyone considering, just to update: Bought ION compatible toner (drum not integrated) from SLS, cheaper by about $30 (from original toner).

Worked fine but actual number of pages printed seems lesser than original toner. But no actual recording done. Roughly 100-200 pages per week, used for around 1.5 months.

Can try inkbow.com, it's half price from original and I haven't had any issues so far.

Thanks! I had no issue with my compatible one as well. I checked inkbow and the toner for my model was similar to what I paid for (for the ion brand). Just that the absolute capacity seemed a bit less. But it's just a general, probably biased perception, since I didn't really do any real tabulation of printed pages.

Just sharing my thoughts in case other people also thinking of saving some money.

Hi !
I bought compatible before but close to a year, it starts to leak onto the paper.
You still using the toner ? How long already ? Any problems ?
