Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Innobella inks and papers represent Brother’s next generation of printing technology. Brother Innobella inks are uniquely formulated. When Innobella inks are used in any of the LC61 or LC65-based MFCs or Fax machines in combination with our new Innobella paper, the results are smoother, natural looking images and fewer granularities, producing our best looking prints ever. Brother’s new Innobella paper has optimized surface coating for photo quality brilliant colors. This thick, high gloss quality paper, when combined with Innobella inks, provides rich, photo-quality feel, significantly smoother levels of reproduction, more vivid colors due to a shift in color spectrum, and improved light and color fastness.

1.0 out of 5 stars BUYER BEWARE Starter cartridges NOT STANDARD yield!, September 23, 2010

Bought this to replace the "Starter" cartridge that came with my Brother MFC-490CW. Little did I know, this is a 2 pack of STARTER cartridges, which basically means you only get around 500 pages, instead of the 1500 you would get with a STANDARD cartridge! You can get the standard Brother brand in a 2 pack from Amazon, for the same price, here:

The product works, but the non-disclosure of this information makes it unacceptable!

1.0 out of 5 stars Started Cartridges, Not Full Ones!, October 20, 2010

This review is from: Brother LC61BK Ink Cartridge - Black (2 Pack) (Office Product)

I am supporting what a previous reviewer noted - these are only starter cartridges, not full ones (it says so on the packaging that the cartridges come in). Again, while it doesn't bother me that they are starter cartridges, I would have liked to know that that is what I was paying for - the non-disclosure to the customer in the product listing is unacceptable. The full cartridges appear to be the same model number, as is the listing posted by the other reviewer, so how am I supposed to know that 400 pages = a starter cartridge?
Other than that, the first one inserted into my printer appears to be working fine. And the shipping to Canada was very reasonably-priced, and very fast (about 1 week!). So thank you for that.

3.0 out of 5 stars starter cartridge with no box, February 1, 2011

Be sure to review the Seller Notes before buying. Amazon makes them hard to find but they are out there. TonerPals does not include retail box so expiration date cannot be checked. On this item TonerPals Seller note: "Genuine New Sealed OEM Brother LC61BK Black Starter Ink Cartridge from Brother. 2-Pack." Starter cartridges may not yield as much as standard cartridges. Maybe half as much.
