Brother strongly recommends that customers use only genuine Brother ink for best results. Using non-Brother supplies may affect the hardware performance, print quality, and machine reliability since the ink formulation in genuine Brother ink cartridges prevents smearing and clogging of the print head. The Brother limited warranty does not apply to any problem that was caused by the use of third-party ink and/or cartridges.

If you are using non-Brother ink cartridges or refill ink and experiencing print quality issues, we recommend you replace the ink cartridges with genuine Brother ink cartridges. If you are using genuine Brother ink cartridges, follow the steps listed below to resolve this issue..
