AI-generated summary
If you’ve got a compatible Brother mono laser and you’re happy to stick with OEM, the TN-328BK is a pretty sensible buy. OEM toner usually just “works” without the usual faff—clean text, consistent output, and less chance of annoying print-quality quirks compared with cheaper third-party cartridges. At £74.66 ex-VAT, though, it’s priced like a business supply you don’t think about, not like a bargain you’re trying to squeeze. So this is best for offices that prioritise predictable results over chasing the lowest cost per page.
I’d only buy it if your printer model specifically takes this cartridge and you’re getting a decent page yield for your actual usage. If you print heavily and you know cheaper alternatives give similar results in your machine, you might find better value elsewhere. But if you’re in a smaller team, rely on sharp documents, and want to minimise downtime/printing issues, this is a “safe choice” cartridge—just don’t assume it’s the cheapest option by default.
