Frequently Asked Questions

How many pages does the LC105Y print?

Up to 1,200 pages, rated under ISO/IEC 24711 — Brother's published figure for the LC105Y, and exactly double the 600 pages of the high-yield LC103 equivalent.

Can I mix LC105 colors with an LC103 black?

Yes — slots are independent, and tier mixing is normal on these eight printers. Many owners run LC103 black with LC105 colors, or the full super-high combination of LC107BK/LC109BK with LC105 colors.

Only my yellow is low — do I need the whole color set?

No. Replace this single cartridge and leave the other colors in place; each color has its own slot and its own chip.

Is this a genuine Brother cartridge?

No — it is a Clever Supplies compatible cartridge built to the LC105Y specification, with a new compatible chip, labeled compatible on the box and on this page.

How do I install it without chip problems?

Hold the cartridge by its housing, keep fingers off the small green chip on top, and push it in until it clicks. Brother's own help pages for this family start every 'Cannot Detect' check at that chip.

LC103 or LC105 — which color tier should I choose?

LC105 doubles the rating (1,200 vs 600 pages) and suits steady color printing; LC103 costs less per cartridge and is the only tier the nine smaller models accept. Per page, the super-high tier is the endurance choice on the eight printers that take it.

What warranty and returns does it carry?

A lifetime warranty — a cartridge that fails to perform is replaced — and free returns within the first year.

How should I store a spare cartridge?

Sealed, upright, out of direct sunlight. Open it only when you are ready to install it, and keep the protective cap on until then.

Will this fit the MFC-J870DW?

No — the J870DW is one of the nine smaller models whose top tier is LC103. The LC105 tier belongs to the eight larger Business Smart models listed on this page.

Which printers does this cartridge fit?

Eight models: MFC-J4310DW, MFC-J4410DW, MFC-J4510DW, MFC-J4610DW, MFC-J4710DW, MFC-J6520DW, MFC-J6720DW and MFC-J6920DW. The nine smaller models in this family do not accept the LC105 tier at all — their top color tier is LC103.

Will my printer recognize this compatible cartridge?

This cartridge carries a new compatible chip. If your printer's firmware has been updated, recognition issues can occasionally occur — remove the cartridge, check that the green chip contact is clean and untouched, reseat it firmly, and restart the printer. Brother's own "Cannot Detect" guidance for this family starts from the same chip check. We do not claim guaranteed recognition on every firmware version; if a cartridge still will not register, the lifetime warranty covers it.

Where is the LC105 black?

There is none — Brother never made an LC105BK. In this tier the colors are LC105, and the black splits by printer: LC107BK for MFC-J4310DW, J4410DW, J4510DW, J4610DW and J4710DW; LC109BK for MFC-J6520DW, J6720DW and J6920DW. A listing selling an 'LC105 black' is mislabeled.
