Brother LC103 Ink For MFC-J4610DW

MFC-J4610DW

An MFC-J4610DW typically belongs to a home office that prints in color as well as black, and its mid-size position in the five-model group gives it a wider ladder. It runs high-yield LC103 at 600 pages alongside the super-high tier — LC105 colors and the LC107BK black at 1,200 pages each. This owner should note two warnings. The super-high black splits by model group: LC107BK is the black for this printer, while the three ledger models (MFC-J6520DW, J6720DW, J6920DW) take LC109BK instead, and the two blacks are not interchangeable. And listings that sell an 'LC105 black' are mislabeled — in this tier the colors are LC105, and only the colors.

The MFC-J4610DW 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

For the home-office owner, ink changes happen between meetings, and the routine stays short. Each cartridge here has a new compatible chip and a slot of its own, so an empty one comes out on its own; hold it by the housing and keep your 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.
