Are Expired Printer Toners Okay to Use?

Hi,

I have a generic black printer toner for a Brother laser printer. The toner says it has expired on July 2017. I was wondering if anyone knows whether there is any particular harm that can arise out of using 'expired' toners?

thanks

RIP OP.

You'll be fine, just give it a good shake before use (preferably with the packet still sealed)
