Brother LC103 Ink For MFC-J4310DW

MFC-J4310DW

The owner of an MFC-J4310DW usually prints more than the smallest models in this family handle, and the ink choice reflects that. This mid-size, five-model-group printer runs high-yield LC103 (600 pages) plus the super-high tier: LC105 colors with the LC107BK black, each rated at 1,200 pages. Two cautions matter for this owner. First, the super-high black splits by model group — this printer takes LC107BK, while the three ledger models (MFC-J6520DW, J6720DW, J6920DW) take LC109BK instead, and the two blacks are not interchangeable. Second, any listing selling an 'LC105 black' is mislabeled; in this tier, LC105 means colors and only colors.

The MFC-J4310DW takes LC103 high-yield ink (600 pages per cartridge, ISO/IEC 24711) and the super-high tier: LC105 colors (1,200 pages each) with the LC107BK black (1,200 pages). There is no LC105 black — on this model the super-high black is LC107BK.

Chip, ink and everyday use

A mid-size workhorse owner wants the swap, not a troubleshooting session. Every cartridge in this range carries a new compatible chip and sits in its own slot, replaced separately from the others, so handle it by the housing and keep fingers off the small green chip contacts. If a firmware update ever causes a recognition hiccup, reseat the cartridge firmly and restart the printer. Every Clever Supplies cartridge here carries a lifetime warranty with 1-year free returns.
