Brother DCP-L5510DN toner and drum

Your DCP-L5510DN takes the TN920XL (high yield), TN920XXL (high yield) and TN920 (standard yield), plus the DR920 drum. At our price that is about 0.4¢ a page.

The Brother DCP-L5510DN is a mono laser all-in-one in the DCP-L5500 series, which shares cartridges across 2 models.

It takes two black cartridges that differ only in capacity: the TN920 at about 3,000 pages and the TN920XL at about 6,000. At our prices that is 1.2¢ a page against 0.7¢, so the high-yield cartridge costs less to run unless you print very little.

The drum is a separate part on this printer. The DR920 is rated for about 45,000 pages, so it outlasts several toner cartridges and only needs replacing when the printer reports drum life, not every time you change toner.

Brother has stated publicly that its firmware updates do not block third-party cartridges, and the printer counts pages rather than measuring toner, which is why the Replace Toner message can appear before a cartridge is empty.

When you compare prices, compare cost per page rather than the sticker price: a cheaper cartridge with half the rated yield costs more to run. Every cartridge here ships free, is covered by our printer damage protection and can be returned within 90 days, opened or not.

Questions about the DCP-L5510DN

What toner does the Brother DCP-L5510DN use?

The TN920XL, TN920XXL and TN920. Brother lists these cartridges as compatible with this model, and the yields on this page are Brother's published figures.

Does the DCP-L5510DN have a separate drum?

Yes. The DR920 drum unit is a separate part rated for about 45,000 pages. Replace it when the printer reports drum life, not when you change toner.

Does using a compatible cartridge void the DCP-L5510DN warranty?

No. Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act a manufacturer cannot void your warranty because you used a third-party cartridge. If one of ours damages the printer, our printer damage protection covers the repair.
