How to Access the Reset Menu on a Brother TN-223, TN-227 Series Laser Printer

By resetting your Brother printer's page counter directly in the printer menu, you can avoid having to reset your cartridge's reset gear or installing one on a starter cartridge. Resetting the page counter is easier than resetting the cartridge's flag gear as it requires no disassembly. However, this can only be done ONCE per cartridge.
