I was researching a brother laser recently and there were a shitload reports of the printer crapping out with non original toner after a power outtage. Also if you were buying non original toner you had to transfer your drm chip to the new toner.

Word for word, this reads like HP. It perfectly describes the Laserjet M402, for example. This stuff is my day job and what you describe isn't Brother-like in the least.
