Key Features Explained

1. Color Foundation:

   • Yellow is a primary color in the CMYK color model. It is fundamental for creating a vast range of hues, including greens (when mixed with cyan) and oranges (when mixed with magenta). Without accurate yellow, color prints will have a distinct blue or purple cast and will be unable to reproduce natural-looking greens and skin tones.

2. Part of the Hybrid System:

   • Like the cyan and magenta inks in this series, the yellow ink is dye-based to ensure vibrant color reproduction for graphics and photos, while the printer uses a separate pigment black ink for sharp, water-resistant text.

3. High-Yield Economy:

   • The 100ml bottle provides a high page yield, maintaining the low cost-per-page advantage that is central to ink tank printers.

Who is this ink for?

• Owners of specific Brother printers that require the BTD-100 series ink (see list below).

• Users who need accurate color reproduction, especially for images containing natural elements like sunlight, foliage, and skin tones.

Critical Compatibility Warning

The Brother BTD100Y ink is strictly for use in printers designed for the BTD-100 series. It is NOT compatible with Brother printers that use BC-60, BC-50, or any other ink series.

Using an incompatible ink can clog the printhead and cause permanent damage to your printer.

Examples of Compatible Printers

• Brother MFC-J6945DW

• Brother MFC-J695DW

• Other models in the J5940/J6940 series

How to Confirm Compatibility:
Always check the ink compartment of your printer. There will be a clear label indicating the exact Brother ink model number required (e.g., BTD-100). This is the only reliable way to ensure compatibility.

Conclusion

The Brother BTD100Y Yellow ink is an essential component for achieving full-color prints in compatible Brother printers. It ensures the color balance and vibrancy of your prints are accurate. The single most important action is to double-check that your specific printer model is designed for BTD-100 series inks before purchasing this product.
