What it is

What is a compatible Brother ink cartridge?

A compatible Brother ink cartridge is a cartridge made by an independent manufacturer and engineered to be fully interchangeable with the original Brother cartridge (LC series). We cover the entire Brother inkjet line: DCP, MFC and MFC-J printers for office and home. Where a product page states a page yield, check its declared test protocol: ISO/IEC 24711.

How to choose

How do I find the right compatible Brother ink cartridge for my printer?

Three ways: by LC cartridge reference, by printer model, or by visual recognition.

By LC cartridge reference

Look for the code on your Brother cartridge · e.g. LC3211, LC3213, LC123, LC223, LC421, LC1240. The LC series is Brother's inkjet naming scheme.

By printer model

Use the finder with the exact model · e.g. Brother DCP-J772DW, MFC-J6930DW, DCP-J152W.

By visual recognition

Browse the available products and check compatibility, declared yield and price on each product page.

FAQs

What people ask us about compatible Brother ink

Which compatible Brother ink cartridge do I need for my printer?

Identify it by the LC reference on the cartridge (e.g. LC3211, LC223, LC123) or by your printer model (e.g. Brother DCP-J772DW, MFC-J6930DW). Every product page lists the full set of compatible printers.

Does using compatible ink void the Brother warranty on my DCP or MFC?

No. Under Directive (EU) 2019/771 and art. 120 RDL 1/2007, you have the right to use third-party consumables without losing the statutory warranty on your Brother printer.

What's the difference between compatible Brother LC3211 and LC3213?

LC3211 is the standard version (~200 pages per colour at 5%) and LC3213 is XL (~400 pages, double). Both fit the Brother DCP-J772DW. Same logic for LC3217/LC3219XL and LC123/LC125XL.

What should I do if my Brother doesn't recognise the compatible ink cartridge?

Some Brother models display "non-Brother cartridge". It's only a notice · the printer keeps working. To clear it: (1) Power-cycle the device. (2) Accept the on-screen message. (3) Some models ask you to confirm when inserting the cartridge.

How many pages does a compatible Brother cartridge print?

At 5% (ISO 24711): LC3211 ~200 pages each; LC3213 ~400 pages each; LC123 ~600 pages BK / ~600 colour; LC223 ~550 pages BK; LC1240 ~600 pages BK / ~600 colour; LC421 ~200 pages BK / ~200 colour.

Why do Brother cartridges dry out if I don't print regularly?

It's a property of inkjet ink, not the cartridge · it also happens with OEM. To avoid it: print at least once a week, run the printhead cleaning routine from the Brother menu every 2-3 months, and store cartridges sealed.

What warranty do you offer on compatible Brother cartridges?

3-year Startoner consumable warranty.
