Frequently Asked Questions

My prints have gone pale and the same marks keep repeating down the page — will changing both parts together sort it?

That combination of symptoms is the textbook case for this bundle. The repeating marks belong to the drum: a worn DR420 surface prints its flaws at regular intervals on every sheet. The paleness belongs to the toner: a TN420 nearing empty lays down less powder. Changing only one usually leaves the other symptom behind and the owner unconvinced anything improved. This box contains both genuine Brother parts — one TN420 cartridge rated at 1,200 pages and one DR420 drum rated at 12,000 — so the machine's whole imaging path is renewed in a single visit.

How long is the drum expected to serve once fitted?

Its rating is 12,000 pages, which on this platform works out at roughly ten TN420 cartridges passing through one drum — or about four to five of the high-yield TN450 cartridges the platform also accepts. In calendar terms, for the home offices and small practices these machines typically serve, a drum change is an every-few-years event. That longevity is why a genuine drum is worth insisting on here: a poor surface would show its defects on every page for that entire span.

Does the bundle save anything against its parts?

A modest amount, stated plainly. The TN420 cartridge is $68.41 here and the DR420 drum is $140.33, which totals $208.74; the bundle is $195.41, saving $13.33, and it sits $78.16 under the $273.57 combined list. Nobody should buy it for the saving alone — its real value is that both halves of a tired printer are dealt with together, matched and genuine, in one delivery. But the saving is real, and it is yours either way.

Which machines does this pairing belong to?

Brother's long-serving compact mono generation: the HL-2130, HL-2132, HL-2220, HL-2230, HL-2240, HL-2240D, HL-2242D, HL-2250DN, HL-2270DW, HL-2275DW and HL-2280DW printers; the DCP-7060D and DCP-7065DN; the MFC-7240, MFC-7360N, MFC-7365DN and MFC-7460DN multifunction models; and the Intellifax 2840 and 2940 fax machines. Nineteen models share the platform, which is why these parts remain in such steady demand long after the machines themselves left the shelves.

What does the fitting involve on these older models?

The classic Brother sequence. Slide the assembly out, lift the old cartridge from the old drum, click the new TN420 into the new DR420 until it seats, and slide the unit home. Slide the green corona-wire tab across and back as the manual shows, then reset the drum counter through the machine's menu — on this generation that step is the one most often missed, and without it the printer keeps reporting the old drum. Keep the drum's green surface away from fingers and bright light while it is exposed.

What return and warranty cover applies to the bundle?

Genuine Brother goods from this store can be returned within 30 days of delivery, in all cases, and warranty protection is Brother's manufacturer warranty on the parts. If a piece arrives damaged or misbehaves after fitting, contact support — Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST — inside that window for the simplest resolution. The full policy is set out on the shipping and returns page.
