With chip · complete set BK+C+M+Y · for Brother HL-L8260CDW HL-L8260CDN HL-L8360CDW

The Plutoos TN-421 TN-423 Multipack 4-Pack replaces the original Brother TN-421 / TN-423 toner cartridges — 1× Black, 1× each Cyan/Magenta/Yellow. Every cartridge is supplied with a chip: automatic recognition and toner level display as usual.

When a whole team prints through the Brother HL-L8260CDW or HL-L8360CDW, an empty color is not an annoyance — it is downtime. This 4-pack lines up black, cyan, magenta and yellow in one go — every cartridge with its chip pre-installed, recognized on insertion, all from ISO-9001-certified production. Companies save particularly clearly with compatible toners in this performance class, where every franc per page counts — and the printer's manufacturer warranty naturally continues under Swiss and EU law. Four cartridges in the cupboard mean zero debates at the printer.

Compatible printer models

Note on firmware updates: As a rule, only the latest firmware versions of a printer are able to identify and restrict compatible cartridges. Many customers and user forums report that compatible cartridges keep working without interruption when automatic firmware updates remain switched off in the printer settings. The decision rests solely with the customer.

Package contents

Page yield according to ISO/IEC 19798, at approx. 5 % page coverage.

Installation & first use

1. Unpack the toner cartridge only just before use.
2. Gently rock the cartridge 5–6 times horizontally (side to side) to distribute the toner powder evenly.
3. Remove the protective seal/strip.
4. Insert the cartridge until it clicks into place — the chip is recognized automatically, no resetter needed.
5. Confirm the non-genuine cartridge message with OK — this is normal.
6. Caution: never touch the green drum roller — fingerprints and scratches cause permanent print defects.

Care & storage

• Store cool, dry and dark — away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
• Never touch the drum surface or expose it to direct light.
• Store the cartridge horizontally, in its original protective bag.
• Once opened, use the cartridge up rather than storing it — opened toner cartridges attract humidity and dust over time.

Good to know

• «Toner low» message: This message often appears early. Remove the cartridge and gently rock it side to side to redistribute the remaining powder — this often yields many more pages.
• Toner vs. drum: Two different consumables. The toner cartridge holds the powder that is used up as you print; the drum unit transfers the image onto the paper and has its own lifespan. Streaks, spots or ghosting usually point to the drum, not the toner.
• Firmware updates: Printer manufacturers occasionally release updates that restrict the recognition of non-original cartridges — as a rule, only the latest firmware versions are able to identify and block compatible cartridges. Many customers and user forums report that those who want to use compatible cartridges improve their chances of trouble-free operation when automatic firmware updates remain switched off in the printer settings. If an update has already been installed and messages such as “Cartridge not compatible” or “Ink level low” appear, other customers report that rolling the firmware back to the previous version has helped — instructions can be found via a Google/YouTube search for your printer model and “firmware downgrade”. We pass on these experiences of other customers in good faith; whether and how you apply them is solely your decision and responsibility — results may vary from printer to printer.
