Key Features Explained
-
Part of a Hybrid Ink System:
-
The BTD-100 series uses a smart approach: a pigment-based black ink (BTD100BK) for water-resistant, sharp text, and dye-based color inks (BTD100C, M, Y) for producing a wide color gamut and smooth gradients in photos and graphics.
-
This combination offers the best of both worlds for a business printer: professional text and quality color output.
-
-
Dye-Based Color Ink:
-
Dye inks are known for their ability to produce a wide range of vibrant colors and smooth transitions, making them ideal for printing charts, graphs, logos, and photographs.
-
-
Large 100ml Volume & High Page Yield:
-
The 100ml bottle offers a very high page yield for color printing, contributing to a low cost-per-page for color documents.
-
-
Genuine Brother Quality:
-
Using original Brother ink ensures color accuracy, prevents clogs, and maintains the health of your printer’s printhead.
-
Who is this ink for?
-
Owners of specific Brother printers that require the BTD-100 series ink (see compatibility list below).
-
Businesses that need to print both professional black-and-white documents and color materials like marketing flyers, presentations, or reports with charts.
-
Users looking for the economic benefits of an ink tank system with the added durability of pigment black ink.
Crucial Compatibility Note
The Brother BTD-100C ink is ONLY for use in printers designed for the entire BTD-100 series. It is NOT compatible with the more common BC-60 series printers (e.g., DCP-T420W, MFC-T920DW, etc.).
Using the wrong ink can damage your printer.
Examples of Compatible Printers
These printers are typically part of Brother’s J-series, designed for high-volume, versatile printing. Examples include:
-
Brother MFC-J5945DW
-
Brother MFC-J6945DW
-
Brother MFC-J695DW
-
Other models in the J5940/J6940 series
How to Confirm Compatibility:
The safest method is to check the ink compartment lid of your printer or the user manual. The required ink model number is always clearly stated there. Do not rely solely on general model names.
