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

What is in this pack?

Brother LC101 Black (LC101BK); Brother LC101 Cyan (LC101C); Brother LC101 Magenta (LC101M); Brother LC101 Yellow (LC101Y).

Can I replace one color at a time?

Yes. Each color is a separate cartridge, so replace only the one that is empty.

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.
