Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with printing or ink performance, consider the following:

• Poor Print Quality: If prints are faded or colors are inaccurate, ensure the ink tank is adequately filled and perform a print head cleaning cycle through your printer's utility software.
• Low Page Yield: If you experience significantly fewer prints than expected, verify that you are using genuine Brother ink. Non-genuine supplies may not deliver the advertised page yield.
• Ink Leakage: Ensure the ink bottle was properly inserted and removed, and that the ink tank cap is securely closed. Leakage can often be attributed to improper handling or non-genuine products.
• Printer Failures/Jams: While ink bottles themselves rarely cause mechanical failures, using non-genuine ink can lead to clogs, damage, and other printer malfunctions. If issues persist, consult your printer's manual or Brother support.
