Is it compatible with your printer?

The LC223 cartridge (LC221/LC223 series) is the ink used by all of these Brother inkjet all-in-one printers. If you own any of these 14 models, this is your cartridge. The letters at the end of each name indicate what each machine can do: DW adds Wi-Fi connectivity, DCP models are 3-in-1 devices (print, copy, scan) and MFC models also include fax and network connection; they all use exactly the same consumable.

The consumable you need and how much it yields

The compatible Brother LC223 from Startoner is an ink cartridge (not a toner: these are inkjet machines, not laser) with a yield of 550 pages measured according to the ISO/IEC 24711 standard, which defines how many pages an inkjet cartridge yields under standardised conditions. That way you're comparing apples to apples against the original.

It's a conventional ink cartridge, with no drum: in inkjet printers the ink is sprayed directly onto the paper, so you don't need to replace any other part beyond the cartridge itself. When it runs out, you simply swap it and you're done. Each of our cartridges is manufactured under ISO 9001 certification to guarantee consistent quality print after print.

How much printing costs you

Here's the key: you get the same 550 ISO pages as with the original cartridge, but you pay much less. The cost per page plummets without sacrificing quality or yield. Multiply that across all the cartridges you go through in a year and the savings are considerable, especially if you print in colour frequently.

Frequently asked questions

Does the compatible LC223 work just like the original in my Brother?

Yes. The compatible LC223 cartridge is designed to work in exactly the same models as the original Brother cartridge, including the DCP-J562DW, the MFC-J5620DW, the MFC-J480DW and the rest of the family. It installs the same way and delivers the same print quality. If you have any doubts about your specific model, use the printer finder before buying.

How many pages does each cartridge print?

Each compatible LC223 cartridge yields 550 pages according to the ISO/IEC 24711 standard, the same standard used to measure the original cartridge. It's a standardised figure, so you can compare yield directly and fairly.

Does using compatible ink void my printer's warranty?

No. Using compatible ink cartridges does not void your printer's legal warranty. Article 120 of Royal Legislative Decree 1/2007 (Spanish General Law for the Protection of Consumers and Users) protects your equipment: the manufacturer cannot deny you the warranty for using another brand's consumables, unless it can prove that the specific consumable caused the fault. In addition, our cartridges come with their own warranty.

How long does shipping take?

We ship within 24-48 hours to mainland Spain, and shipping is free on orders over €50. You'll receive your cartridge ready to install within a couple of days.
