Don't mix these up: LC203XL fits the same slots as the standard LC201. It is not the same as LC103 (MFC-J470DW/J870DW) or LC3011/LC3013 (MFC-J491DW/J497DW/J895DW). The MFC-J4320DW, J4420DW, J4620DW and J5000-series printers also take the super-high-yield LC205/LC207 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
What is in the combo pack?
One each of Brother LC203XL black (LC203XLBK), cyan (LC203XLC), magenta (LC203XLM) and yellow (LC203XLY).
Is LC203 the same as LC201?
They fit the same slots. LC201 is the standard-yield version and LC203XL is the high-yield version, so you can mix them.
Will LC3013 cartridges fit the MFC-J480DW?
No. LC3011/LC3013 fit the MFC-J491DW, J497DW, J690DW and J895DW.
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.
