How to refill Brother TN-350

REQUIRED FOR A SUCCESSFUL REFILL:
 Toner
 1 funnel cap
General Refilling Procedures:
Use a Flat head screwdriver to pop out the large plastic plug found on the side of the
side of the cartridge.

IMPORTANT: You must dispose of any original toner in the cartridge as much as 
possible before refilling. Dispose of toner properly into a trash can, or use a vacuum 
with a hose for best results (if possible).
Before opening the bottle of toner, turn it upside down and tap it on a table to loosen

the toner and allow it to flow freely. Remove the cap and pull the seal off the bottle.
Attach the funnel cap making to sure it is on tightly. Tilt the funnel cap toward the fill-
ing hole and insert it into the hole. If the toner stops flowing before the cartridge is full,
simply remove the toner, close the cap, turn the bottle upside down and tap it on a table.
Once the cartridge is full, seal the hole with the plug by twisting it until it is completely
seated. Now gently shake the cartridge side to side to distribute the toner.

Installing Reset Gear on Starter Cartridges

Using the illustration below as a guide, remove the 3 screws

indicated with red arrows. Once the screws have been re-

moved, carefully and gently detach the side panel.

The picture below shows how the gear 

should be set once it has been placed within 

the panel. To insert the gear in this panel, 

slide the flag (which is the longest part of the 

gear) through the right side opening (green 

arrow on right side) and then slide the gear to 

the left. Once you have done this, hold the 

flag in place and place the panel back on the 

cartridge. Place the screws back in place and 

your cartridge is ready to be used.

How to remanufacture Brother TN420 TN450 TN2210 TN2220 toner Cartridge for use in DCP 7030, DCP 7040, DCP 7045N, HL 2140, HL 2150N, HL 2170W, MFC 7320, MFC 7340, MFC 7440N, MFC 7840W and reset the toner counter.

There are 3 different yielding toner cartridges:
Starter cartridge -- 700 pages at 5%
TN420 (TN2210 Europe) - 1200 pages at 5%,
TN450 (2220 Europe). - 2600 pages at 5 %
The drum unit DR420 (DR-2200 Europe) is rated for 12,000 pages. 
Fuser assembly haS a life of 50,000 pages.
When you instal a new toner cartridge, the bias voltage is set to a high voltage. 
As the cartridge is used, the bias voltage is gradually reduced down and the density increases. 
This is necessary because a new toner cartridge has a tendency to print light, and to keep the density level even throughout its life, the density bias voltage is reduced accordingly. 
Each time a new cartridge is installed, the bias voltage is reset to the high voltage point, and the cartridge page count is reset to zero. 
Since different yields would dictate different decreases in density over time, the cartridge uses different reset gears. 
The developer roller presents the good toner to the drum, but it also pick up the waste toner.
So, at the end of its life, the toner cartridge is full of waste toner.
Failure to clean the toner cartridges properly, will causes backgrounding. 

RESET PROCEDURES FOR DCP MODELS:
If you have replaced the toner in your Brother DCP, and the error message hasn't automatically reset, follow the procedure to reset it manually:
-Open the front door 
-Press clear key
-Press start key
-Press down arrow key
-Press up arrow key
-Press Ok
-Close the front door

TEST PAGES
Press "GO" key 3 times, within 3 seconds, with the front cover closed and the "READY" light on.

DEFECT CHART
Drum: 9,42 cm
Upper fuser roller: 5,34 cm
Lower fuser roller 7,85 cm
Developer roller: 3,25 cm

Required tools:
Screwdriver
90g Toner
isopropyl alchool
Better if you have compressed air

Quick video on how to reset the Brother TN-210 Black, Yellow, Magenta, Cyan cartridge. Your printer will say you are out of toner and lock up far before you are truly out of toner. 

Once the flag gear is reset you should be able to practically double the output of the cartridge before you need to refill or replace it.

Please note that the flag gear is NOT present on the teaser cartridges that come with the printer. A flag gear can be purchased online if desired.

happy refilling and recyling :)

8 Tips to Improve Your WiFi Network Performance

• 
  
  

Odds are pretty good you loaded this page over a WiFi network — or, as it is better known in my house, that $#&*#$!! WiFi network. That’s because our wireless network always chooses the worst possible time to crap out, like when we’re getting to the thrilling climax of House of Cards on Netflix.

Still, it’s better than it used to be. I’ve learned a few WiFi tricks over the years, and asked some folks who know more than I do for a few more. If you’re happy with your current WiFi setup, that’s fine. But if you want faster speeds, more reliable performance, or to just get more use out of your network, try the following eight tips.

1. Get up to speed.First, let’s go over some basics. (If you’re already a WiFi wonk, you can skip this paragraph.) WiFi does not actually mean “wireless fidelity.” Its real name is a number: 802.11, the technical standardfor wireless networks first established by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) in 1997. That number is always accompanied by a letter (like a, b, g, or n) that indicates which version it is. Generally speaking, each new version of 802.11 is faster and more reliable than the last, but “higher” letters don’t always mean faster speed. For example, 802.11a is faster than 802.11b. Go figure.

2. Prepare to pony up.The newest WiFi standard, 802.11ac, is roughly three times faster than the previous champ, 802.11n. In geek-speak, each 802.11ac antenna can move up to 1,300 megabits of data per second (vs. a max of roughly 450 megabits for n). So I’ll just get this out of the way: The easiest and fastest way to get more performance out of your WiFi network is to buy a new 802.11ac router.

That’s especially true if you haven’t bought a router recently. Technology has changed a lot over the past two years, and devices built to work with 802.11ac (like the new iPhone 6 and 6 Plus) are coming out every day.

The ASUS RT-AC3200 features six — count ’em, six — antennas, for a maximum theoretical throughput of 3,200 megabits per second. (ASUS)

Older phones and laptops will work fine with newer routers, though they won’t be able to take advantage of the speed or other new features.

But the best 802.11ac routers aren’t cheap. You can expect to drop from $100 to $300 on a new one. (Or, if you’re a T-Mobile customer, you can get a free Personal CellSpot that’s really an ASUS ac router.)

But even with an older router, there are things you can do to squeeze better performance out of your existing gear.

3. Find the right spot.Start by making sure you’ve put the router in the optimal place. Remember, WiFi signals hate water. They’re also not too crazy about metal, glass, brick, insulation, and human bodies; all these materials can impede the signal, notes Sandeep Harpalani, director of product marketing for router makerNETGEAR. For the fastest, most reliable connection, put your router in an open space, as centrally located and as high off the floor as you can.

4. Measure your signal strength.Just a couple of feet can make the difference between strong and wimpy WiFi reception. Mobile apps like Assia’s Cloudcheck or Amped Wireless’s Wi-Fi Analytics Tool let you walk through your home and identify dead spots, so you can figure out the best places to put your WiFi devices.

Assia’s Cloudcheck app lets you know how your WiFi signal fluctuates. It even beeps like a Geiger counter when coverage is strong.

5. Messing with the antennas may help.If your router has adjustable antennas, changing their angle can redirect the signal and cover dead spots. Feeling crafty? Freeantennas.com offers instructions on how to make a parabolic reflector out of card stock and attach it to the antenna to boost the signal (although a directed antenna like that will make the sweet spot extremely narrow.)

If you have a new 802.11ac router, though, you probably won’t need this. They use a technique calledbeamforming to focus the signal toward devices on the edge of your network, notes Richard Najarian, senior director of wireless connectivity for Broadcom, which makes chipsets for wireless routers and other devices.

6. Try changing the channel.
Older WiFi routers are prone to interference from other devices operating in the same spectrum — which sadly includes microwave ovens, many cordless phones, Bluetooth headsets, or your neighbors’ wireless networks. Usually the router’s default settings work fine, but if your wireless signal seems flaky, you can dial up your router’s administration page and change the channel to see if things improve.

Mobile apps like WiEye for Android let you view all the wireless nets nearby to see what channels they’re on. (Sorry, iPhone fans — Apple has banished WiFi scanners from the iTunes Store; you’ll have to rely on a desktop app like WiFi Scanner for Mac or WiFi Channel Scanner for Windows.)

Most routers can use 11 channels (specific radio frequencies) and are set at channel 1, 6, or 11 by default, because these frequencies don’t overlap with one another. (So if your neighbor’s network is broadcasting on 6, set yours at 1 or 11 to avoid interference.) Routers that operate in the 5 GHz range (802.11a, n, and ac) broadcast across 23 channels and are less prone to interference, so there’s less need to futz with the channel settings.

You can go into your router’s Web control panel to change channels; you may also be able to use a router-specific app like NETGEAR genie or Cisco Connect Express.

7. Use both bands.
Many routers have radios that operate on two frequencies, roughly 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz (each channel works on a specific frequency near that). So you can have two separate networks running at the same time, one for devices that access WiFi at the lower frequency and another for those that connect at 5 GHz. The higher band is less crowded and better for high-bandwidth uses like streaming video, says Joseph Yarak, director of marketing for Quantenna Communications, a WiFi chipset maker.

8. Use wires when possible.As fast as the newest WiFi standard is, a wireless connection still isn’t as fast or reliable as a standard wired one. When possible, connect bandwidth-hungry devices that stay in one location — like your Roku streaming media boxes or Xbox gaming consoles — directly to your router via networking cable, and save the wireless connections for the stuff that moves around.
