Great value for the price!

Used this toner since purchase of current printer; (all-in-one); would NOT consider any other replacement regardless of price!

You'll be replacing this far too often

I use my Brother printer primarily for business, though a laser printer handles the bulk of my work. The ink quality of the LC61 is good, but it runs out far too quickly. The product description promises "up to 450 pages," but that's an extremely optimistic estimate, in my experience. This may be the fault of the printer, rather than the cartridges, however. They are easy to install and can be replaced with no spillage. I don't recommend using this product for everyday docs. Save it for special projects, as the ink is pricey.

Comments about Brother LC612PKS Black Ink Cartridges, 2/Pack:

I love the scanner which does ledger size but the printer is too expensive to use for routine printing. Color prints are very good but I have photo printers that I use for prints. The printer will not work when one of the cartridges is empty so the option of printing in blue when black runs out is not available.
You could improve this product by insuring that it prints
more pages, and that the printer allows defaults to other colors when one cartridge runs out.
The scanner on this all in one model is awesome so I will keep it , printer and all.
