Brother HL-5200 toner and drum

We are still adding cartridges for the HL-5200. Email support@tonerinkworld.com and we will tell you which one fits.

The Brother HL-5200 is a mono laser printer in the HL-5200 series, which shares cartridges across 13 models.

The drum is a separate part on this printer. The DR520 is rated for about 25,000 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 HL-5200

Does the HL-5200 have a separate drum?

Yes. The DR520 drum unit is a separate part rated for about 25,000 pages. Replace it when the printer reports drum life, not when you change toner.

Does using a compatible cartridge void the HL-5200 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.

Most of these share the same cartridges. Check the model page to be sure.
