I notice there's a pretty well reviewed refill kit (+chips) available for this printer. Are the starter toner carts okay to refill?

o, even the aftermarket tones were rather iffy for this machine so doing it yourself is definitely a Buyer Beware situation. I went through two of these machines, good unit but once you start having to replace the drum or imager you might as well toss the unit and buy something new and modern.

I agree with Robert E. Stabb. I was nearly about to toss it but gave it to my daughter who can waste her time with it instead of playing games. I would not recommend this model to use with refill kits (+chips). The starter toner cartridge can be used but be prepared to waste your money when the drum or imager fails.

Of course you can refill HP original cartridges as well as those you get from'refill' vendors. The printer will show a message to try to shame you to buy OE carts. Just press OK.

Includes the "starter" toner kit. I have printed about 300 pages without running out so far.

Yes, there is a starter cartridge included with this printer. I don't remember its page count rating, but I have been using it ever since I purchased this printer even though I also bought a full toner cartridge at the time. I have had to shake the starter cartridge a few times recently but am still using it. Sorry I can't be more precise.

You receive a standard "starter pack" which basically includes mini versions of the cartridges (the yield is not as high as the regular cartridges are). It would be a good idea to buy the regular toner cartridges with the printer so that you have them available to you when the starter pack runs out.

It does include toner cartridges but it's just enough to get started. You'll want to purchase full-sized ones pretty quickly. Also, we had an issue with getting a magenta streak across every page we printed with the starter cartridges. It may have just been an issue with our particular cartridge. Once we replaced it with a full-sized cartridge, the streaking stopped.

I have the exact same printer. Based on memory alone, I think the instructions suggest to not use all of the toner when refilling. I may have used 90% + and even though it didn't spill out I still may have overfilled as printing quality is not nearly as good with the refilled cartridge.In addition to figuring out how to remove the filler cap, prying the container apart without damaging the cartridge, and determining the correct amount of toner to pour in I also installed a new chip and updated the firmware on the printer. Printer didn't recognize the cartridge with the new chip without the firmware update)If I had to do it over again, I think I would just spend the extra dollars and buy a new cartridgeGood luck!!

All new printers come with starter cartridges as far as I am aware. These particular ones have seemed to last longer than in some other models that we have compared to prior printers for the same departments however, they do not last as long as the replacement toner for the same time period according to my users.

yes, comes with 'starter' toner cartridges... which can be extended by overriding the 'toner out' for a little past the recommended usage

I am afraid, I have no idea about starter kit. I just uses it to refill my cartridge.

Assuming you have a printer model that works with the refill kit, there could be a problem with the chip you replaced. Is the new chip installed in the cartridge in the correct orientation? Did you try using the old chip instead of the new one?

I recently purchased the same printer and because it came with the "starter" toner purchased that genuine toner here on Amazon. It works just fine. BTW, Amazon was cheaper than Staples.

Laser printers don't use ink, they use toner... and yes it comes with a 'starter' cartridge good for I forget how many sheets (took me well over a year to consume it.Unlike inkjets, laser toner cartridges can be easily refilled several times. Here's one place to get toner kits... (this link goes directly to the DCP7060D page.) http://www.tonerrefillkits.com/Brother-DCP-7060D-Toner.phpGood luck!

Hi. Yes, the chips do come with the refill kit and are very easy to install. I don't have a page count since I'm still printing away, but I can look at the control panel later and let you know the count up-to-date. I did look at the counters and here is the summary since installing the kit: 962 color prints / 795 mono prints. That's a total of 1757 prints. I still have 87% of CMY and 56% of K, so it seems like it should easily print another 1757 prints before I'll have to replace the K toner.

Yes, it comes with everything you need to start printing. And, it is a toner cartridge, not ink cartridge. I'm sure you ask because a new toner cartridge is half the cost of this printer......Great printer, by the way, we ended up getting four here at work.

Usually not. New printers come with a starter cartridge (quite a bit less yield than a regular one) but refurbished don't.

it's ink & for my purpose of just refilling printheads, I didn't question it. I have not tried to refill cartridges, & I know the HP Printers are set up to be sensitive to 'tampering" so you can continue to purchase HP cartridges. Sorry, can't help you in that area.
