How long will the ink last if not used?

Unopened cartridges should be stored in a cool, dry place. Properly stored, they can maintain their quality for a significant period. Once installed, it's best to use them within a reasonable timeframe to ensure optimal ink flow.

Can I mix genuine Brother cartridges with non-genuine ones?

While technically possible, it is strongly recommended to use only genuine Brother cartridges to ensure optimal printer performance, prevent potential damage, and maintain your printer's warranty.

Troubleshooting

Printer not recognizing new cartridge

Ensure the cartridge is correctly installed and seated firmly. Remove and re-insert the cartridge. Check for any protective tape that may have been missed. Restart the printer.

Poor print quality (streaks, faded colors)

Run the printer's head cleaning utility. Ensure the correct paper type is selected in the print settings. Check that the ink levels are adequate for the color in use.

Ink low message persists after installing new cartridge

Verify the correct cartridge model (LC223) was installed. Some printers may require a manual reset or confirmation after cartridge replacement; consult your printer's manual.

Cartridge appears to be leaking

Remove the cartridge immediately and inspect for damage. Do not use a damaged cartridge. Contact Brother support if the leak is confirmed.
