What's in the Box
- 1 × Brother LC103XL Cyan (LC103XLC) remanufactured ink cartridge — about 600 pages
Page yields are the manufacturer's rating for the matching original cartridge, measured at roughly 5% page coverage. Your results will vary with what you print.
Correction: an earlier version of this listing included the DCP-J132W, DCP-J172W, DCP-J552DW and DCP-J752DW. Those are non-U.S. models that use LC123 cartridges, not LC103.

Don't mix these up: LC103XL fits the same slots as the standard LC101. It is not the same as LC203 (MFC-J480DW/J680DW/J880DW) or LC3011/LC3013 (MFC-J491DW/J497DW/J895DW). Some of these printers also take the super-high-yield LC105/LC107 cartridges.

Chips, Printer Messages & Installation
Installing: with the printer on, open the ink cartridge cover on the front of the printer. Press the release lever (or push the cartridge) to unlock the empty cartridge and pull it out. Remove the orange protective cap from the new cartridge without touching the chip, insert it in the direction of the arrow on the label and push until it locks. Close the cover; the printer resets the ink level for that color.
"No Ink Cartridge" or "Cannot Detect": take the cartridge out, check the orange cap and any tape are fully removed, and push it back in firmly until it clicks. Restart the printer if the message stays.
Streaks or faint colors: run Cleaning from the Ink or Maintenance menu, then print a nozzle check. Brother printheads are built into the printer, so let it rest between cleanings rather than running several back to back.

Remanufactured vs. Compatible vs. Original
Original (OEM) cartridges are new from the printer brand and cost the most. Remanufactured cartridges, like this one, start as genuine original shells (including the original chip) that are cleaned, refilled with high-quality ink and print-tested, so they fit and communicate like the original at a fraction of the price. Compatible cartridges are built new by a third party with their own chip. Castle Ink sells remanufactured inkjet cartridges and compatible (newly manufactured) toner.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many pages does the Brother LC103XL cyan print?
About 600 pages, based on Brother's rating for the original LC103XLC at roughly 5% coverage. The standard LC101 prints about half as many and fits the same slot.
Is LC103 the same as LC101?
They fit the same slots. LC101 is the standard-yield version and LC103XL is the high-yield version, so you can mix them.
Will LC203 cartridges fit the MFC-J470DW?
No. LC203 fits the newer MFC-J480DW, J680DW and J880DW family.
Will this void my printer warranty?
No. Under the U.S. Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, a manufacturer can't void your printer warranty just because you used a third-party or remanufactured supply. If a non-original supply directly caused damage, that specific repair might not be covered.
How long can I store it?
Store it sealed, at room temperature and out of direct sunlight, and use it within about 24 months for best results. Once opened, install it promptly.
When will my order ship?
Orders placed by 4 PM ET, Monday through Friday, ship the same business day from Long Island, NY, by USPS (2–5 business days). Expedited 1–2 day delivery is available at checkout, and shipping is free on orders over $50.
