Brother MFC-L2710DW updated FW blocks third party toner. Downgrade?

Hello,[br]
I found out today that one of the latest firmware updates of the Brother MFC-L2710DW has blocked an otherwise perfectly functioning and still almost full (90%) toner cartridge. I don't print very often, but this is really annoying.[br]
[br]
The message on the display is that the toner is exhausted, so the continue mode that should force the printer to use it anyway is not working.[br]
[br]
To add to this, the user interface tells me to use only original Brother consumables "to get optimal results", but even if I am perfectly fine with the third party toner (honestly I see no difference) it seems I can't use it. By searching on google I found that some users have been downgrading Brother printers as they are encountering the same issue on different models. [br]
[br]
Is there anybody that might help with this problem?[br]
I would want to either downgrade the firmware or finding a way to bypass the block. [br]
Thanks.[br]
