Brother MFC-L5850DW dumb Secret procedure to reset toner cartridge

Update: the TNR-HC is the code for the High Yield Cartridge, the TNR-STD is the code for the Standard Yield Cartridge, Google the other codes to figure out what they mean.
Brother MFC-L5850DW Secret procedure to reset toner cartridge.
Open cartridge door, hold invisible # key for 5 seconds,
reset menu appears, select appropriate code and hit
reset. This will fix the stupid tonner low message. Stupid executives should know that these dumb ploys to try and force sales of toner cartridges actually backfire. It's a far more
lucrative strategy to advertise that you dont play these games
and beat the other Printer makers to the punch. Then have
shootoff companies selling toner in all sorts of ways. But
when you have secrets that diable your printers just when
you need to print most late at night before an important function, you just turn customers away. Do I need to quit my job and take control of this company ? LOL

Thank you for the tip. It worked exactly like you described. Saved me a ton of frustration because the included instructions do not work. Thanks again!

[@karenalexander2333]

I stumbled upon your helpful video when trying to find info on replacing the cartridge - not even realizing THIS is what I would end up really using! Great instructions, thanks so much.

[@LongbowLawyer]

Thank you Mike Roberts! I had racked my brain trying to figure this one out via Brother's "support" site and nothing. Your quick video saved me further time and headache.

[@liztlaw]

The only video I found on the net explaining it clearly! Thanks! Works for "empty" toners as well :)

[@ashleysosebeechasm3042]

Had to hold my button for 15 seconds but I have the L5800DW and it has been printing for 10 minutes straight, can't believe how much more Toner was in the cartridge. I'm still using the Cartridge that was supposedly out of Toner.

Not sure about being the man, but thanks, lol, Why these printer companies play these games is beyond me I really don’t think it’s a strategy that sell some more cartridges

[@hankdatank09]

Thank you so much!!

[@bonitamorlang1073]

Anyone know how to reset the fuser and laser units? I'm at 2% on both and the printer repair shop says he can't find any fuser parts but once mentioned resetting? Do I have to wait until its at 0%?

[@calikev3528]

U have to pull the toner out for the reset to show up
