substitute toner for TN-014

[M3HR4N]

Hi guys, could anyone suggest a substitute or not genuine toner for TN-014 in Konica Minolta bizhub 951/1052, it's a little expensive in our country so I'm looking for a replacement out there maybe another brand works on this machine with good quality, and also a good one for developer (DV011).
Thanks in advance 😊

That is one of the cheapest OEM toner and developer for PP machines, i would not mess with it, not worth it regarding possible damage and print quality.
At least in my country, what price you get for TN014 ?

Normally I don't encourage something like this, but with production equipment, if they aren't pushing pages out they I am not getting paid..TN-014/15/16 are all interchangeable. The bottles don't fit and it's pretty easy to make a huge mess, but you can pore one to the other without any side affects..Please notice I am not including TN-17. E

Bizhub Pro/Press 1051, 1200, 951, 1052, 1250 all use the same developer. Ergo, same toner formula. Apparently even the Accurio series developer is compatible. Toner bottle end caps can be removed and product transferred. Big mess potential and not worth the cost savings IMHO. I would only consider it due to the national backorder situation.

Used Katun TN414 before. TN710 did the job before as well.

Not worth decanting all the time.

TN015 or TN016 cheaper?

Yea i tape the two bottles ends together with electrical tape and tap it until the toner is transferred.

In China, we use alternative toner at half the price of TN014.
