5.0 out of 5 stars Lasts a long time!
I print a lot of documents for my interior design business. This ink cartridge is a recurring order for me. It works & lasts a long time. I've used name-brand inks in my printer since I purchased it 8 years ago, and have never needed maintenance on the machine. It's worth it!

Good quality replacement for a decent price
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Product
It is a pain to be in the middle of printing and have to change an ink cartridge. These ultra high yield cartridges cut down on the frustration and save money at the same time. Brother cartridges in general are very high quality, and easy to install and remove without muss or fuss.
4.0 out of 5 stars Good value.
Works fine, as it should. Pricing is better than at office supply stores. Still, printer cartridges are over priced in general.

I have tried several generic inks that claim to be the same size but give you three or four more cartridges for the same price as this brand name one cartridge. Trust me, it is not worth it. Those cartridges seem to last a fraction of the time and it ends up to be less hassle and frustration to just buy the original. It always seems that half of the generic ones don’t even end up working so I throw away a full cartridge (which takes time and is frustrating when you need to print just that one page) I’ve never had an issue with these and completely recommend them.
1.0 out of 5 stars The Brother Plan: one cleaning consumes 308 pgs of ink
After 15 years of using “Genuine” Brother ink cartridges and MFC machines exclusively, we’re going to switch to another brand. Brother "claims" on its package and product descriptions that this LC109Bk cartridge yields approximately 2,400 pages. I’d never counted before. Today we installed a new LC109Bk with an expiration date of “2020.11.” The test page was very poor - for the black and yellow (1 of the 3 new LC105CL color cartridges we installed simultaneously). Following the screen prompts, we ran a “cleaning” of black and color, then printed a test page. During FIVE such rounds of cleaning/test page printing, the quality had improved with each round, but by the 5th round, some 10% of the test page still wasn’t correct. Page 103 of the manual reads, “If you clean the print head at least five times and the print has not immproved, try installing a new Genuine Brother Brand replacement ink cartridge for each problem color. Try cleaning the print head up to five more times. If the print has not improved, call Brother Customer Service.”But we just paid Brother/Bolo $30 in reliance on their inducement that this cartridge would print some 2,400 pages. And no, we don’t have another new cartridge at the moment. The test print quality *was* 90% corrected, so we chose to run a 6th round of clean-and-test-print. That round fixed another 5%. So we ran a 7th round which fixed 100%.Then the surprise: the ink level indicator showed that only 10% of the ink in our new 2,400-page black cartridge remained; 90% of the ink had been consumed by only 7 cleanings and test pages. There was nothing about this in Brother’s manual or online FAQs. I assumed the ink-level sensor must be failing or that it needs to be reset.I phoned Brother support and spoke to Sasha. I explained our 7 rounds of clean-and-test. I asked how to reset the ink level indicator. She explained that the indicator is correct; cleaning uses a great amount of ink. “How much per cleaning?,” I asked. They don’t have that information, she told me. How convenient, I thought - for Brother, NOT its customers.So 7 cleanings plus 7 test pages has consumed 90% of a cartridge rated for 2,400 pages; that’s 308 pages per clean-and-test. That sounded so ridiculous that I asked for a replacement cartridge on the assumption that ours had been erroneously underfilled.I held for a few minutes while Sasha left to check further. She returned with the same assertion: the ink level sensor and cartridge are okay; 7 cleanings and 7 test pages consumed 90% of the ink. To avoid this problem, I should have phoned them after the 5th cleaning as instructed by the manual. During such a call, Sasha explained, they would have guided me through a “deep cleaning.” (Searching the 223-page PDF manual for “deep clean” returns not a single result.)To summarize: Brother’s manual recommends you “try” up to 5 cleanings, THEN buy and “try” a new cartridge with up to 5 more cleanings, after which you should then call them for a “deep cleaning.” Why five “tries” instead of ONE? If you keep your MFC powered on continuously, as we have, it automatically cleans between cartridge changes as needed. So why does Brother have its customers waste such copious amounts of ink: here, the equivalent of 308 pages of black per cleaning - up to 1,540 pages for 5 cleanings? Why doesn’t Brother disclose this in the manual or, better yet in their advertising specs?Two possibe answers are: 1) They defraud their customers by regularly under-filling the ink cartridges and concealing the actual page-equivalents consumed by cleaning (so the customer can never verify a new cartridge’s fill-level; or 2) They think it’s good for Brother to gain more revenues at the expense of their customers’ wasted ink, time and money. (Otherwise, they’d be willing to replace occasional under-filled cartridges.)A 3rd possibility: perhaps Brother has dishonest customers who seek the unearned at Brother’s expense. If so, treating everyone as a liar and potential looter is Brother’s prerogative, but punishing the many for the sins of the few is ultimately a mypoic, losing, cowardly business strategy. As with fraud: you simply cannot fool all of the people all of the time.
5.0 out of 5 stars Although I dont like auto ordering many products the auto ordering Amazon offers ...
No problems. Works as advertised. Although I dont like auto ordering many products the auto ordering Bolo offers on printer ink is really nice. The printer advises Bolo via wireless that the cartridge is low. Bolo notifies me, and if I dont stop the order Bolo will auto send the product. This works nicely for me since I always forget about printer ink when I am in a store.
Perfect for ne
Best quality, perfect for my printer

Facilidad de compra
Buena calidad
Buen Producto alto rendimiento
Es bueno comprar por Bolo, las papelerías grandes manejan los cartuchos normales que rinden menos, y no o casi nunca tienen los cartuchos de alto rendimiento
More effective than scaring an Octopus
It's as black as Octopus ink but no Octopus were harmed in the making of this ink. PETA should thank me.
