I have hesitated to give up branded toner but after years of paying close to 100.00 for toner and page count the amount of toner has gone down many times, I have this Tried cold toner and now I kick myself for not doing it sooner. The print is just as crisp - no smudges - in fact as good as the big name brands and so much cheaper that the customer realizes the big name toners are killing a product that should have been a lot cheaper. I will never use branded toner again. NEVER.
