This says it is the XL cartridge but in the comments from buyers they say it's the small cartridge(Non XL) which is it, and expiration date?

920 cartridge is available in XL for all 3 colors and black. Have always received the correct cartridge in the XL box. Many merchants sell the carts--try a different one. If the box says 920XL it should be that cart.

To my knowledge, the XL cartridge only comes in black. I use up these so quickly I don't usually worry about the expiration date.

Mine are always the XL. I dont recall if there was an expiration date as my husband installed the ink right away - works great.

I don't see any mention of an expiration date on the instructions that came with the cartridge. Maybe try the Brother web site?

Had thrown away the packaging, but I checked one of the cartridges. It's April 2016. Hope this helps.

I hope you kept your packaging. This happened to me and I learned the hard way that if the cartridge is beyond the expiration date, it will not work! The expiration date is on the outside of the original box. So it is critical you check the date before you open the box and install a cartridge that will not work!

I cannot answer this precisely because I am using it for the first time; however, with all of my printers (I have three, two HP and one Epson) that using the XL cartridge always has been the best buy.

I have only used the black cartridge to date. I am not qualified to rate the others

As far as I know the cartridge is not rechargeable so you do need to buy a new one when it's expired.

I haven't used the entire cartridge yet. I initially got some 'sales help' but I just looked it up online. The 901 says 200 page yield but the 901 XL says 700 page yield. So it's basically letting you know that it is the better deal.

Hi Penny, the XL on the ink cartridge model number or part number means that it is high capacity. Thanks, PCrush

XL just means there is twice as much ink in the cartridge. It cost more, but you replace it less frequently. That is how it was explained to me.

It would only be a guess but I print a great deal and my most recent cartridge from Blake lasted 6 months as compared with only a few months from brand XX.

I used my last few cartridges and I don't recall seeing an expiration date on them. I'm sorry I couldn't help your more.

I don't know. You'd have to ask the company selling the cartridges, not the customers.

The expiration date is different on every single ink cartridge package. It depends on when it was manufacturered.

Yes, I was using the standard cartridges before purchasing the XL version. The XL cartridges last longer.

Hi Sam - I have that very same printer! However, I've never checked the menus for an 'expiration date' of each cartridge. Mine does show levels. For example, I needed just the darker pink (magenta?) cartridge. When I put it in, it registered as full. Overall, the cartridges work great. Hope that helps.

From my experience. There is no way of knowing what the expiration date is for the cartridges being shipped. You will not know what the expiration date is until you actually receive the cartridge. The date is on the package when you receive it.
