Hi,

Basically I have been buying Ink off Injet.ie and the black ink that I buy for my specified product appears to be awful. Not sure if its the printer or the cartridge.

Tried cleaning it many many times and the colors are still fine, but the black varies from poor to just awful . Each time I clean and the test print page comes off, the black quality has changed (not necessarily better).

I had seen somewhere that some people believe that brother intentionally make their systems in a way that if you try to use cheaper cartridges (rather then their own) your printer will automatically not work efficiently.. Anybody got anything to say on that or any advice . .
