Frequently Asked Questions

What does a color cartridge really cost in this six-pack?

The box is $104.65 for six cartridges — $17.44 each. Measured against the $32.86 single price, six singles would run $197.16, so the pack saves $92.51. Per cartridge, you are paying close to half price for the identical TN336 color cartridge rated at 3,500 pages. For the three tiers of this platform priced side by side — TN331, TN336 and TN339 — and the per-page math that separates two tiers sharing one shelf price, see our Best Brother TN331 Toner Cartridges — including why no compatible cyan single exists for the TN339 tier.

How does that per-cartridge price change my cost per color page?

At the single price, a 3,500-page color cartridge costs about 0.94 cents per page in toner. At this pack’s $17.44, the same cartridge works out to roughly half a cent per page. For anyone printing color in real volume — handouts, charts, branded documents — that difference compounds across every page of the year.

Which printers do these six color cartridges fit?

They install in HL-L8250, HL-L8350, HL-L8350CDWT, HL-L8250CDN, HL-L8350CDW, MFC-L8600, MFC-L8850, MFC-L8600CDW and MFC-L8850CDW. They occupy the cyan, magenta and yellow slots; black for the same machines is the TN336BK, sold as a single cartridge or in multi-packs.

Is there any catch compared with buying singles — smaller cartridges, shorter life?

None. The cartridges in this box are the same TN336 cyan, magenta and yellow cartridges with the same 3,500-page rating as the singles; only the unit price changes. The saving comes from the pack size, not from a lesser cartridge.

How should I work through six color cartridges without waste?

Install by need, not by set: your printer flags each color separately, so replace only the empty slot and return the rest to the shelf, still sealed. Rotating stock this way means no cartridge is ever installed before its time and the spares stay in their protective packaging until the day they are needed.

What if the cost math changes because a cartridge fails early?

The protection is straightforward — every cartridge is under a one-year warranty and returns are free for a full year, as described on the Shipping & Returns page. A single failure gets resolved on its own and does not unravel the saving on the other five.

With two rounds of each color in the box, how should I rotate through them?

Write the arrival date on each box and install the older cartridge first whenever a slot calls. The second round stays sealed in its packaging on the shelf until its turn comes — there is no benefit in opening cartridges early. This oldest-first discipline means no TN336 cartridge sits forgotten at the back of the cupboard aging while its twin does the work.

Can this six-pack feed two different printers from the fit list?

Yes. Every cartridge in the box fits every model named for this family, so the pack can be shared between, say, an HL-L8350CDW and an MFC-L8850CDW. If you split it, mark on each box which machine it is destined for; the count stays honest, each office area knows what it holds, and nobody discovers too late that the spares were all promised to the other printer.

What should I check when the six-pack first arrives?

Count six cartridges: two each coded TN336C, TN336M and TN336Y, all sealed. Note what is not in the box — black is a separate purchase in this family, the TN336BK — so if your black is also low, it needs its own order. A two-minute arrival check inside the delivery window is far easier than discovering a shortage on the day a slot runs dry.

What do the empty cartridges tell me at the end of a cycle?

If you date each box when it goes in, the empties become a consumption record. You will see which of the three colors your documents actually burn fastest — often the one carrying your charts or your brand color — and how long a round realistically lasts in your office. That record is what makes the next decision easy: another six-pack, or singles aimed at the one color that runs ahead.
