MFC-J6935DW
For the MFC-J6935DW, the ink decision is already made by the platform: INKvestment Tank means LC3029, Super High Yield, nothing else. The Clever Supplies compatible cartridges below are chipped and ready to install, with a lifetime warranty. This is an INKvestment Tank printer — it does NOT take LC3017 or LC3019.

MFC-J6935DW Ink — Platform Decides the Cartridge
Brother lists the MFC-J6935DW for LC3029 and for no other cartridge in this group: LC3029BK up to 3,000 pages, LC3029C, LC3029M and LC3029Y up to 1,500 pages each (ISO/IEC 24711). This is an INKvestment Tank printer, and LC3029 is its single cartridge family — there is no second tier and no substitute on this page.
For the MFC-J6935DW, the ink decision is already made by the platform: INKvestment Tank means LC3029, Super High Yield, nothing else. If a listing offers LC3019 for this printer on the strength of matching yield numbers, it is wrong — the cartridges are physically different. Singles cover one low color, the Set of 4 is the full reset, and the Set of 9 is the bulk box for a printer that works every day.
The Set of 9 pattern — 3 black and 2 of each color — matches text-heavy consumption, where black runs first; the Set of 4 is the balanced full reset when all four positions run low together.
Which LC3029 should you buy?
- One color ran out: replace just that color — black is $13.49; cyan, magenta and yellow are $11.99 each.
- Full refresh: the Set of 4 ($43.44) replaces all four positions in one box.
- Print every week: the Set of 9 ($89.91) stocks 3 black and 2 of each color — the shelf box for text-heavy work.
Chip, ink and everyday use
Expect one message and set the worry aside: with a compatible cartridge the MFC-J6935DW may show “Cannot Detect Ink Volume,” and Brother's support text says the machine keeps working with that message. Every cartridge here carries a new compatible chip; Brother's support text adds that the message typically only appears with generic, third-party or refilled cartridges, and the firmware note (A–K versus L and above) is covered in the product FAQs. All cartridges on this page carry a lifetime warranty with 1-year free returns. Singles, the Set of 4 and the Set of 9 are all built on the same LC3029 cartridges — the sets are packaging, not a different cartridge — and the six Tank printers share one list, so a spare LC3029 bought for any of them fits this one.
