• Cartridge Type: High-yield (not super high-yield), which offers a balance between upfront cost and longer printing life compared to standard cartridges.

• Original Manufacturer: Brother, ensuring the cartridge is designed and tested for compatibility with Brother printers.

💡 Note: “5% coverage” is how manufacturers estimate page yield. It means only 5% of the page is covered in ink — typical for standard office documents. If you print lots of photos or graphics with heavy coverage, real yields will be lower.

 Why Choose Genuine Brother Ink?

Opting for an original Brother cartridge like this one has several advantages:

Reliable Performance

Genuine Brother ink delivers consistent output and helps reduce the risk of printhead clogs or poor colour accuracy. Brother designs its inks and printers to work together, so reliability tends to be better than with cheap third-party alternatives.

Better Colour Quality

The yellow ink is formulated for good saturation and smooth gradients, which is especially helpful for photos or graphics.

 Warranty Protection

 Using genuine consumables preserves your printer’s warranty, whereas some manufacturers may refuse warranty claims if damage results from third-party cartridges.

 Third-Party Alternatives Exist

If cost is a concern, remanufactured or compatible cartridges like the Cartridge World Brother LC-73Y Yellow Ink Cartridge and others may be cheaper. However, quality and printer recognition can vary, and some printers may reject third-party chips — meaning they won’t register ink levels accurately or at all.

 Tips for Best Results

• Install Carefully: Ensure the cartridge is snapped firmly into place. Poor seating can cause printing errors or “not detected” messages.

• Shake Before Installing: For some older cartridges, gently shaking the cartridge before installation can help ink distribution, though this is less critical with newer designs.

• Use Regularly: If you print infrequently, run a nozzle check or colour print occasionally to prevent ink from drying in the printhead.

• Replace All Colours Eventually: If one colour runs out, waiting to replace only that cartridge helps maintain balanced colour output.

 Pricing & Value

Genuine Brother LC-73Y Yellow Ink usually retail around AU$30–$65 depending on retailer and promotions. The cost seems higher per cartridge, but the reliable performance, yield, and warranty protection often make it a worthwhile investment for consistent printing — especially in home offices or small businesses.
