Troubleshooting

Printer not recognizing the new ink cartridge.

Ensure the cartridge is correctly installed and all protective seals/tapes have been removed. Try restarting the printer. If the issue persists, reseat the cartridge or consult your printer's manual.

Yellow print color is weak or missing.

Check that the yellow cartridge is not empty. Run a print head cleaning cycle via your printer's settings. Ensure the correct yellow cartridge model is installed.

Print quality is smudged or streaky.

Perform a print head cleaning and nozzle check. Ensure the print heads are clean and that the paper type is appropriate for the print job. Avoid touching the printed page immediately after printing.

Ink level shows as empty shortly after installation.

Verify that the cartridge is an original Brother LC-1220Y. Sometimes, non-genuine cartridges can report inaccurate ink levels. Ensure the printer's firmware is up-to-date.
