The Brother MFC-J485DW ink cartridge is one of the top-rated original equipment manufacturer (OEM) cartridge refills for its class of printers. Printing an average of 550 pages per cartridge, Brother MFC-J485DW inks for compatible Brother all-in-one (AIO) printers deliver remarkably crisp and vibrant prints. In comparison, other OEM refills yield about 50 to 160 pages fewer than the Brother MFC-J485DW ink cartridges. Refilling compatible Brother printers with OEM Brother MFC-J485DW ink cartridges from Staples gives you high-quality photo and graphics, and clean, small font text on documents comparable to laser printouts.

Compatible OEM Brother MFC-J485DW ink cartridges
The Brother MFC-J485DW is a compact all-in-one (AIO) budget-friendly printer option for home, home office, micro office, and small office use. Brother multifunction printer inks come separately in cyan, magenta, yellow, and black (CMYK). Separate cartridges for each color make it a more practical choice for inkjet printers that have a black and a combination CMY cartridge. With separate CMY cartridges, users only have to replace one color cartridge at a time and not the entire CMY cartridge.

Genuine Brother MFC-J485DW inks are also popular for their higher print yield per cartridge vs. cartridges for other printers in its class. This goes for both standard-yield Brother LC201 and high-yield Brother LC203 inks. Brother LC201 ink cartridges yield approximately 260 printouts, while the LC203 series of ink cartridges can print up to 550 pages. Four standard-yield starter Brother MFC-J485DW ink cartridges come with each new printer unit. Users can easily switch between standard-yield and high-yield Brother MFC-J485DW ink cartridges without having to make setting adjustments on the printer.

OEM Brother ink vs. compatible and refilled ink cartridges
Compatible ink cartridges refer to aftermarket ink replacement cartridges from third-party manufacturers. On the other hand, refilled ink cartridges are empty OEM cartridges that third-party manufacturers refill with generic printer ink. Both these types of ink replacements come at a significantly lower cost than OEM cartridges. Users need to decide whether it is wise to use compatible or refilled ink cartridges instead of genuine Brother printer inks to meet their budgetary needs.

Brother MFC-J485DW inks have one of the lowest running cost per page (cpp) printing among inkjets in its price point. While compatible and refilled options may offer some savings, there are risks that come with using aftermarket inks. These include poor print quality that happens quite often, and they may even cause damage to the printer. Using genuine Brother ink cartridges ensures that the printer performs at an optimal level and produces high-quality prints consistently.

What is the cpp of Brother MFC-J485DW standard- and high-yield ink cartridges?

Brother MFC-J485DW ink cartridges puts the cpp of high-yield black cartridges at 3.5 cents. High-yield CMY cartridges, all have cpps of 2.18 cents. Standard-yield Brother MFC-J485DW ink cartridges, on the other hand, have a cpp of 2.8 cents.

Are there bulk options for Brother LC201 and LC203 cartridges?
There are two-pack, three-pack, and four-pack Brother MFC-J485DW ink cartridge options available for additional savings.

How do you dispose of the ink cartridges responsibly?
Brother USA has an eco-friendly recycling and disposal program for spent toners and cartridges. Clients can use the product's shipping boxes to return spent cartridges to the company for processing.
