Brother LC528BK Super High Yield Black Ink Cartridge
Brother LC528BK (LC528BK) is a genuine Brother super high yield ink cartridge in black, rated at up to 6,000 pages, made for owners of Brother MFC-J5010DW, MFC-J5110DW, MFC-J6975DW and MFC-J6977DW printers who want the manufacturer's own ink rather than a compatible.
Brother's Business Smart and Professional A3 inkjets are built for busy offices, and the LC528BK super high yield black is what keeps their cost per page low on everyday documents.
Genuine Brother cartridges carry the chip the printer uses to report remaining ink, and Brother states that using them protects your printer warranty.
What's in the Box
- 1 × Brother LC528BK super high yield black ink cartridge
What It Means in Practice
- The yield is Brother's figure measured with the ISO/IEC 24711 method on a standard mixed text-and-graphics test page. Full-page colour, photos or heavy graphics use ink faster, so real page counts will be lower; plain text documents usually land close to the rating.
- 6,000 pages to ISO/IEC 24711 from one black cartridge — in a typical small office that is months of invoices and letters between swaps.
- Pigment black gives sharp text that resists smudging on plain paper.
- Colours are separate cartridges; replace only the one that runs out.
- The printhead is a separate part that stays in the printer — this cartridge is only the ink supply. If print quality drops while there is still ink, the fix is usually a printhead clean from the printer menu, not another cartridge.
- Installing takes a minute: open the cartridge access door, wait for the carriage to stop, press the old cartridge to release it, and push the new one into the slot of the same colour until it clicks. Close the door and the printer recognises it.
- Keep spare cartridges sealed in their box at room temperature and install them before the date printed on the packaging; an opened cartridge is best used rather than stored.
What Will Not Work
- Brother printers that use other cartridge series (LC421, LC424, LC426 and so on) — check the code on your current cartridge.
- Colour printing — black only.
- Any printer that is not in the compatibility list below — if your model is not listed, send us the model before ordering.
