I think it depends on the seller you choosee. I bought from Amazon and mine was a Brother part in the appropriate packaging.

According to the Brother.com (http://www.brother-usa.com/supplies/accessorylist.aspx?Model=MFC8710DW#.VBIvh5J0yFk) website, the DR720 is an official replacement accessory for their MFC8710DW. However, for it to be a GENUINE Brother replacement accessory, it must be manufactured by Brother and not a "pirated copy". It is reputed (by Brother) to make copies of 30,000 pages.

The unit I received was genuine Brother unit in original packaging. Worked perfectly!

It's not available anymore. You might try calling a Authorized Brother dealer and see if they have it, and what the price is.

Yes, it is. I recently purchased the 3-color pack and the black-only cartridge and everything that I received were in original Brother boxes, just like you get in retail stores.

Might be a Brother Cart, but not VIRGIN!....I had pressed the 're-order this' link from my purchase history, the price was about 1/2 off from my previous order. I was notified the next day from the vendor that "Please note toner ordered is a compatible toner cartridge produced by M&A; Global LLC.". I was confused because the first time I ordered this, it was direct from AMAZON...now the same order link if for another company? This is not seemingly for an OEM-Virgin item. I thanked them for the message, and they did cancel the order without issue. I need OEM carts in my Brother....I have tried remanufactured before with 'less than stellar' success.

Truthfully I cannot answer the question. I would suggest calling someone that sells the Brother products and ask them to be sure. Hope this helps

I ordered and mine was OEM. Some comments stated they weren't OEM, but that was awhile ago. I got a Brother Brand Toner... I think the price is low because there's no overhead in selling in a store, etc. It's just a toner so it can't possible cost them that much to manufacuter. No idea but it was much much less than in stores.

I did recieve the ink and it was in the genuine brother packaging, If that is what you wanted to know. My printer has not worked for months now. I am not sure which ink I purchased has caused the problem. My printer keeps giving me "error 50 can not print" I thougth it was a paper jam, but that was not it. My printer will not take a fax, it will send faxes. Anything to do with actual printing it will not do. I don't know if you are asking this question because someone has had problems with ink they have purchased from this seller or if you are asking me this question because the seller is having problems with a buyer.

I am afraid I don't know as it was sent straight to my brother. I assume it is and he was very pleased with it.

If it's listed as "Brother" and is in retail packaging, it seems it would be OEM. Third party products usually say "compatible" and would be in generic packaging.

G'Day Hilmi: I believe the Brother is a proprietary design that uses proprietary labels that do not have an aftermarket replacement supply on the market yet.

I don't think it will. I ordered it from my brother ce8080prw and after reseraching it and really looking at it online (it took a month to get here because it comes from china) I told them it wouldn't work with my machine. they were really good about refunding me my money before I even received the product. But I've noticed with my machine that it is VERY picky about parts, bobbins, and how everything must line up. Therefor, I would break down and buy the genuine brother part. I know, I want it too but I'll have to wait. *sigh*

Pull up your machine on brother.com and go to accessories or go to your manual it will be listed there. Good luck.

Yes it is. I had the same issue with this accessory... I skimped on an off brand and it stopped working quickly. This was the replacement and it works great. Not worth it to buy the unapproved accessories.

Mine isn't But you may get a fake one I suggest to look at the sellers feedback

NO, this is NOT a genuine Brother replacement part. The vendor tricked me with a Brother box in pic, but I will never buy from this vendor again.
