We purchased these with our MFC-J450DW, they do not work! This is a business office and we can't even use our machine that is 1 week old. Solution??

same issue here. they do not work. printer will not accept them. dont buy. even tried the 2nd black without ripping the small plastic and firm push. waste of time and money. will try get a refund from amazon.

You are correct, they aren't innobella ink cartridges and wiil not fit inside that MFC-J450DW machine. You can't even remove the ink vacuum seal to try to install them.. I found out that fact the hardware by including the pack in my order to Amazon and trying one out. Bought the right ones, made by innobella, from Staples and they work. Haven't had time yet to follow up with Amazon to tell them that they should recommend and sell the innobella ones instead. Hopefully they will read this. Don't waste your money on bad stuff as I did.

I was confused about what plastic to rip off or if I was just to shove them in. I had to push the cartridge in pretty firmly. Don't rip off the clear plastic first. I have already used mine so I can't look at one to remember what it looked like before I put them in the printer. But I remember wondering if I was to rip off the small round piece of plastic on the side that goes into the printer. My advice is to put it in the slot and give it a firm push. The little black lever on the top should pop up when the cartridge is seated. This is assuming you have the same printer and cartridges I do. I'm sorry I can't be of more help. Hope they work for you.

they are okay in my printer but i found that you had to push them in firmly 1 ink at a time. and at the points you put in do not take the little plastic on the tips. Take your time make sure they match up to the old ones that are removed

I am very disappointed in this product. I bought this for my home. they do not work. I would think that amazon would check the product before they sell it. it is their reputation that is on the line. I don't know if it is worth my time or money sending it back. carole

I also wonder if older firmware is better for compatibility. The most current firmware available for my Brother MFC-J450DW is version "H". I didn't download it since my printer is working fine. The existing firmware on my machine is version "E" (To check for firmware on your machine, Go to Menu, use arrow key to scroll to "Machine Info" then "Version") My printer detects these inks with no problem.

Yes. I have an MFCJ450 with firmware version "G". I ordered these inks on May 20, 2014, but the ones I received were not as pictured. I received G&G; (Penguin) Black and Magenta inks and LD Yellow and Cyan inks. They work as well as the OE inks that came with the printer. (To determine firmware version: Menu>Machine Info.>Version)

Try one. My printer was not listed either, but they worked fine. If not send them back. Good luck

I had some luck with these and my epson WF-3520. About half would work and half didn't....then the half that did seemed to only work for a while and the printer gave me an error that it didn't recognize them :(

Hi Ryan - I use these cartridges with no problem. All I can think of is to figure out how to reset your printer or printer settings (Google how to reset to factory settings)? Worth a try. Best. Josh

Here's another "thank you" for the information. I just received my new Brother MFC-9840CDW and bought the recommended SODIMM from OEMPCWorld. Everything worked fine, right out of the box. Fantastic!

I did some research for you. No, this is not compatible with MFC-J470DW. The ink cartridges your looking for are LC103 High yield.

Take them out and reinstall them. If that does not work, reboot the printer

I have a Brother model MFC-J270W and I've had no trouble, unless it sits for long periods, then you will need to do a manual Ink "Clean" on the printer menu ............. GDW

here's a huge tip: never update the firmware of your printer - it is entirely unnecessary. If it's not broke don't fix it! That being said, I got these to work with my printer xp410 after unplugging it and restarting a few times. It was a headache but I saved big $$$$

I have a MFC-J270W and they work fine. I cannot say if they will fit your printer

I have an MFC-490CW and they work great, I don't know if they work for your model, but if they have cartridges for you model they should work well.

They did not work. I waited to long to return..... They messed up my printer and I couldn't fix it. I had to buy a new printer. DO NOT BUY!!!!!

I could not get the print heads to work and my HP Office Jet 8500Pro is siting idle. I could not find a way to make it work. I spent hours withHP tech Support and they could not help, they suspect that the print heads are defective, I wish you can help.Dov Novick at: m34fun@yahoo.com

Yes! I have never gotten FF or RW to work. I really wish I'd never gotten these at all.
