Brother LC3033 Standard vs. High-Yield: Which Should You Buy?
| Version | Part numbers | Black yield | Color yield |
|---|---|---|---|
| Super High-Yield | LC3033BK/C/M/Y (bundle LC3033BUND; color 3-pack LC30333PKS) | 3,000 | 1,500 |
| Ultra High-Yield | LC3035BK/C/M/Y | 6,000 | 5,000 |
All versions fit the same printers. Higher-yield cartridges cost more up front but less per page, so they make sense if you print regularly.

Chips, Printer Messages & Installation
In March 2025 Brother publicly stated that its firmware updates do not block third-party ink and toner. If a message about a non-genuine supply appears, choose OK or Continue to keep printing. Remove the orange cap, insert each cartridge into its matching color slot and press until it clicks.

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 that are cleaned, refilled with high-quality ink and print-tested, so they fit like the original at a fraction of the price. Compatible cartridges are built new by a third party. Castle Ink sells remanufactured inkjet cartridges and compatible (newly manufactured) toner.
