Brother printers do not intentionally degrade print quality based on whether a Brother Genuine or non-genuine ink/ toner cartridge is used. Brother cannot verify the quality of printing that will result when using a third-party compatible with a Brother printer.

Could you imagine if your PC refused to boot because you didn’t put Genuine OEM RAM in, instead using GSKILL?

I don't need to imagine, I've worked on enterprise gear like that.
