NEW & TRENDING: LATEST BROTHER INK CARTRIDGE RELEASES

Brother's ink cartridge range has expanded significantly over the past two years, with several new series now available in Australia that are worth knowing about, particularly if you've recently purchased a newer Brother printer model:

Brother LC436 & LC436XL, Brother's Newest INKvestment Series: The LC436 series is one of Brother's most recent cartridge releases in Australia, designed specifically for Brother's newer INKvestment printer models including the MFC-J4440DW, MFC-J5855DW, MFC-J5955DW and MFC-J6955DW. What makes the LC436XL stand out is its remarkable page yield, the black cartridge delivers up to 6,000 pages, while colour cartridges yield up to 5,000 pages each. 

Brother LC432 & LC432XL, Supporting Brother's Latest MFC Range: Launched to support Brother's newer MFC-J5340DW, MFC-J5740DW, MFC-J6540DW, MFC-J6740DW and MFC-J6940DW printer models, the LC432 series has quickly become a popular choice at Ink Depot.

CARTRIDGE YIELD COMPARISON: STANDARD VS XL VS SUPER HIGH-YIELD

Upgrading from a standard cartridge to an XL or super high-yield option dramatically reduces your cost per page. For anyone printing more than 50 pages a week, choosing a higher-yield cartridge is strongly recommended, fewer replacements, less interruption, and real savings over time.

GENUINE VS COMPATIBLE BROTHER INK CARTRIDGES

A question we get asked often and it's worth knowing the answer before you buy.

Genuine Brother ink cartridges are manufactured by Brother to exacting quality standards. They're the safest choice for printers still under manufacturer warranty and deliver fully guaranteed performance.

Compatible Brother ink cartridges are produced by specialist third-party manufacturers and engineered to match the output of genuine cartridges at a significantly lower price. Every compatible cartridge stocked at Ink Depot is tested for print quality, cartridge fit, and performance before it reaches our shelves.

BROTHER INK CARTRIDGE TROUBLESHOOTING: COMMON QUESTIONS

1. Why is my Brother printer not recognising the ink cartridge?

First check that all protective tape or film has been fully removed from the new cartridge. Reinsert it firmly until it clicks into place. If the error persists, reset the ink counter from your printer's maintenance menu or restart the printer completely.

2. Why is my Brother printout streaky or faded?

Streaking or fading usually indicates a partially clogged print head. Run a 'Head Cleaning' or 'Print Head Cleaning' cycle from your Brother printer's maintenance menu, then print a test page. Repeat the process if needed. Avoid leaving your printer unused for extended periods as this can cause ink to dry in the nozzles.

3. How do I check ink levels on my Brother printer?

Ink levels can be checked from your printer's control panel display, through the Brother iPrint&Scan app on your phone or tablet, or via the Brother printer driver on your PC or Mac.

4. Why won't my Brother printer connect to Wi-Fi?

Restart both your printer and your router. Make sure the printer is within range of your Wi-Fi network and that you are entering the correct password. Re-run the wireless setup wizard from your printer's network settings menu.

5. Can I use compatible cartridges without voiding my Brother printer warranty?

Yes. Under Australian Consumer Law, using compatible ink cartridges does not void your printer warranty. Ink Depot stocks only high-quality compatible Brother cartridges that are safe and reliable to use.
