    • 3-year warranty
      3-year warranty on our own-brand cartridges
      We are proud of our own-brand cartridges, so we’ve made trying them a no-brainer. If within three years of purchase you have any problem whatsoever, we’ll happily offer either a replacement or a refund.
      Returning items is easy—it takes just a few minutes. But our return rate is very low, so you’ll be unlikely to need it.
      We are confident that no other own-brand cartridges are better than ours. They produce vibrant prints with accurate colour densities and dark blacks—and their page yields are as good as the genuines, if not better. Give them a try, and see why our customers love them.
      Our own-brand cartridges are incredibly reliable for three reasons:
      1. We are the UK’s biggest seller of own-brand cartridges, and we have invested a lot in optimising them.
      2. We are dedicated to quality. Every own-brand cartridge is performance-tested before it leaves the factory.
      3. We constantly monitor customer feedback, and quickly resolve any issues.
    • Printer protection guarantee
      Our cartridges won't damage your printer—guaranteed
      Some people worry that own-brand cartridges might damage their printers. We know from experience that ours don’t.
      To reassure you, we guarantee that we’ll repair or replace your printer—for free—in the unlikely event that it gets damaged by an own-brand cartridge. This is regardless of how old your printer is. We can afford to offer this because problems are almost unheard of.
      Some people whose printers are less than a year old worry that an own-brand cartridge might invalidate the manufacturer’s warranty. This isn’t true. By law, the manufacturers aren’t allowed to invalidate your warranty if you use own-brand cartridges. If something does go wrong, and our own-brand cartridges are to blame, we’ll take over the manufacturer’s warranty, offer you phone support and repair or replace your printer if needed.

      In summary, there’s zero risk in using our own-brand cartridges.

      The installation was easy wthout any ink spillage and I consider it to be a reasonable price for the amount of the good quality ink that it it holds,
      The print quality was excellent using my Brother DCP-385 printer.
      My long experience has taught me to stick with the genuine Brother inks from a reputable supplier like yourself,

Brother MFC-990CW Printer Review

Expert review of the Brother MFC-990CW printer

Our Verdict:

The Brother MFC-990CW is a fast and efficient multifunction device that boasts a built-in answering machine and telephone. The touch screen is the most notable feature of the all-in-one printer. The downside is that it prints slowly and it is still prone to mechanical issues that are prevalent throughout the range and haven't so far been addressed by Brother.

Design

This printer is surprisingly more compact than other Brother multifunction printers because it only measures 18.4 inches wide, 7.1 inches tall, and 14.8 inches deep. It is fairly lightweight and mobile (weighing only 8.4 kg) and comes with a built-in 802.11b/g wireless and Ethernet interfaces. The Brother MFC-990CW runs on colour inkjet technology using the 4-cartridge ink system, supports borderless printing, and integrated with a hi-speed Super G3 33.6Kbps fax modem with a telephone handset. The 15-sheet ADF supports the flatbed copier of the Brother MFC-990CW, too.

Advantages

The large 4.2-inch colour touchscreen LCD display makes the Brother MFC-990CW a user-friendly multifunction device. Users can rely on the 15-sheet auto document feeder, which also supports the scanner and the fax machine. The Brother MFC-990CW supports direct-printing features via PictBridge, media card, and USB flash drive slots, but it can print wirelessly through Bluetooth, too. This device is Energy Star-qualified, compatible with smart phones, and uses only 1.5-picoliter droplets of ink to help users save money. Print quality is also very crisp and vibrant.

Disadvantages

Brother should improve on hardware and engineering of the MFC-990CW so it can be speedier and work more flawlessly. The device is basically prone to the same mechanical issues affecting most of the company's multifunction printers. Users need to have their own USB cord or buy one because the Brother MFC-990CW does not have it in the package. The warranty is only limited to a year. The printer relies highly on a PC connection and cannot function as a standalone copy machine.
