Brother TN‑1150 Black Toner Cartridge — at a glance

  • Type: Original black toner cartridge for laser printers.
  • Colour: Black (monochrome printing).
  • Yield: Around 1,000 pages at standard coverage (ISO/IEC 19752), which makes it suitable for low to moderate print volumes (e.g., home or small office use).
  • Pack size: 1 cartridge per pack.
  • Original part: Being an authentic Brother toner helps ensure good print quality and helps maintain printer warranty coverage.

📋 Compatibility

The TN-1150 cartridge fits several Brother monochrome laser printers, including but not limited to:

  • Brother DCP-L1640W, DCP-L1642W, DCP-L1660W
  • Brother HL-L1240W, HL-L1242W
    These are compact black-and-white laser models.

🖨️ What it’s best for

✔ Good choice if you print mostly text documents like letters, invoices, homework, or forms.
✔ Standard capacity means it’s affordable but not designed for very high-volume print jobs.

📦 Physical & usage notes

  • Physical size is typical for small Brother toner cartridges (~265 mm tall, ~52 mm wide, ~90 mm deep).
  • Installation is straightforward: open your printer’s front cover and slide in the cartridge following the printer’s guide.
  • When print quality drops or toner runs out, replace it with a new TN-1150 to keep prints crisp.

If you want, I can also help you find compatible printers available where you are (Cape Town, South Africa) or compare it with higher-yield alternatives for heavier printing.
