What company makes C3909A toner?

Color ink or toner?
Printers that utilize toner cartridges are cheaper, more efficient, and better for the environment. While the toner cartridge is more expensive upfront, it will last much longer than a standard ink cartridge. For toner printers that are capable of printing in color, you can purchase a single cartridge that contains the necessary different toners to print in color.
What is the difference in ink jet and laser printers as in quality speed and sound?
Ink jet printers operate by spraying tiny amounts of ink directly to the paper as ink cartridges are passed repeatedly from one side of the platen to the other. In Laser printers, powdered "toner" is collected on special drums using controlled static electricity. The toner is then transferred directly to the paper where heat is used to permanently fuse the toner to the paper. In general, most laser printers will be faster and quieter than ink jets as well as much cheaper to operate for black and white text. Ink jet printers may be initially cheaper, but the cartridges are quite expensive and although a toner cartridge for a laser printer costs more than an ink cartridge, note that the toner will print many times more pages than an ink cartridge. Color laser printers are still quite expensive to operate and purchase.
Does the Brother TN430 use much ink?

What would the difference be between ink and toner cartridges be?
Ink cartridges are used in inkjet printers and contain liquid ink, while toner cartridges are used in laser printers and contain powder toner. Ink produces vibrant colors but can smudge on some paper types, while toner is fast-drying and tends to produce sharper text and images. Toner cartridges typically have a higher page yield and are more cost-effective in the long run compared to ink cartridges.
What is remanufacturing of printer cartridges?
Used cartridges are disassembled and cleaned, and any necessary replacement parts are added. High-quality toner or ink is added, and the cartridges are tested and packaged for distribution. Toner (powder form) is used in laser printers, and liquid ink is for inkjet printers. Remanufacturing exerts fewer burdens on the environment than turning parts back into raw materials for input into the manufacturing system or reusing parts in other products.
Why are inkjet printers more popular for home?
Inkjet printers are good for home use because they are smaller than laser printers and multipurpose laser copiers. They are also less expensive, and if they stop working, it is generally feasible to replace them. The ink cartridges are smaller than toner cartridges. Also, for simple photography, inkjet printers are more convenient. Color laser printers and even color offset copiers which use professional printers' ink are much more expensive when compared to color inkjet printers.
Laser Printer Cartridges?
The printer cartridges laser printers use is essentially identical to the cartridges used by copy machines. A dry black powder called toner is attracted to a printer drum by means of an electrostatic charge. The drum then transfers the toner to the paper. At one time, the price for this technology was totally prohibitive for anyone other than large businesses. Today, laser printers that produce stunning documents and images can be purchased for under $200.
