How to use

Remove the empty cartridge by gently pressing the release tab, then unpackage the new LC-229XLBK cartridge and remove any protective tape or packaging. Slide the cartridge into the correct slot until it clicks into place and close the access panel. Carry out any printer prompts for cartridge recognition or alignment and print a test page to confirm correct installation and acceptable print quality.

Usage recommendations

Store unopened cartridges in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. For consistent print quality, use the Brother LC-229XLBK in printers for which it is specified and follow the printer’s maintenance guidelines. If long-term storage is needed after partial use, keep the cartridge installed in the printer to prevent the ink from drying out and perform a nozzle check or cleaning cycle if print density appears reduced.
