Mismatching your printer and its supplies may lead to less than satisfactory printing jobs, such as smears and clogs, faded prints, product damage and a voided warranty.

Counterfeit and Compatible Inks or Toners are often seen as good alternatives to genuine supplies.

However, these supplies may be poorly manufactured and may result in inferior printouts or even damage your printer.

Compatible supplies made by other companies may not fit well in the printer and may result in poor print quality.

With genuine Brother supplies you are guaranteed to have a fully functioning printer for 3 years together with perfect print jobs every time.
