I recently bought a Brother HL-2040 laser which uses a TN-350 starter
cartridge. Can that starter cartridge be refilled?

It looks like you can.
See http://www.tonerrefillkits.com/refill_products112.php?Brother_HL_2040
I am sure that other suppliers provide the toner also.

I already have a refill kit (Printer Ink Warehouse). Problem is, the
semi-generic refill instructions go on at length about the flag gear
and make a point of saying that most starter cartridges lack the gear.
While the instructions aren't real clear, they seem to indicate that
without that gear the cartridge can't successfully be refilled. I was
hoping someone here might have a little more to say on that subject.

it looks like you are correct.
I also checked with Static Control Corporation and they do not have the gears.
Hopefully someone else here will have some better news for you.

Thanks, Tony. It's beginning to look like I'll have to spring for a
new toner cartridge. )-8

At least a new one should have the gear and you can refill it a couple of
times...hopefully.

My thinking is you could, if you want to, install the gear from a worn out
normal cartridge, and install it on the starter.
