<div dir="ltr">I tend to agree with Jim. If it's a printer you care about and need to keep working, stick with the manufacturer's toner. When I don't use the mfg's toner/ink, its for a printer I don't care that much about or don't care if it dies. For instance, my own office printer is six years old or so and exhibiting some signs of wear hear and there. It still prints well enough, so I don't really feel justified in replacing it quite yet, but I'm perfectly fine with it up and dying on me! So, I save money where I can and am happy to toss in cheaper toner (in the hopes that it'll die sooner ;-) -- so I can justify buying a new one!)<div>

We have been having trouble with the LD toner & drums in our Oki printers and was wondering if anyone is using aftermarket toner & drums or brand name OEM.
