  Yeah I definitely have to agree there. I don’t want to side blindly with a manufacturer, but I like how you said it about the YouTubers being just as susceptible as anyone else to falling for hearsay.

  I will try a third party toner on my Brother when it finally needs a refill to see. Looks like I’ve been running the newer firmware a long time but haven’t had to refill toner since well before. Might as well be moot with how rarely I print lol

  According to Brother and covered list in Arstechnica, it’s not true.

  I know we shouldn’t take the manufacturer at their word, but reading the Ars comments, there’s a lot of reasons why third party toner would cause problems on their own and Brother can’t support trying to fix another company’s product in their own.

  Yeah, if you select or tap the map portion, it expands to full screen.
