Complete four-color replacement ink for everyday home and home-office printing.
The Brother MFC-J1205W uses LC404 ink cartridges. This Starink compatible LC404 4-Pack includes Black, Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow cartridges with pre-installed smart chips for everyday home, school, and home-office printing.
Shop one complete compatible Brother LC404 4-Pack with one Black, one Cyan, one Magenta, and one Yellow cartridge. Pre-installed smart chips support printer recognition and ink-level monitoring, with no chip transfer required.
Includes 1 × LC404 Black, 1 × LC404 Cyan, 1 × LC404 Magenta, and 1 × LC404 Yellow. Each individual cartridge yields up to 750 pages in accordance with ISO/IEC 24711.
Starink compatible Brother LC404 ink cartridges are designed for the three verified printer models below. Select a printer to view its model-specific ink page.
Each figure applies to one individual cartridge:
| Cartridge | Page Yield |
|---|---|
| LC404 Black | Up to 750 pages |
| LC404 Cyan | Up to 750 pages |
| LC404 Magenta | Up to 750 pages |
| LC404 Yellow | Up to 750 pages |
Page yield is measured for each individual cartridge in accordance with ISO/IEC 24711. Actual results vary with page content, printer settings, print frequency, maintenance cycles, and other usage conditions.
The set is one complete four-color 4-Pack—not “4 Packs.” Each cartridge can be replaced separately when its color needs replacement.
Each cartridge arrives with a pre-installed smart chip designed to support printer recognition and ink-level monitoring.
The chips are already installed, so you do not need to move chips from depleted cartridges.
Black, Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow are separate cartridges, allowing the color that runs out to be replaced individually.
The complete four-color set supports common home and home-office output without broadening compatibility beyond the verified printer model.
LC404 identifies the cartridge family used by the verified printer model. Confirm replacement ink by the complete printer model and cartridge family before ordering rather than relying on a broader “MFC-J1200 Series” name. This page does not claim that every similarly named Brother MFC-J printer uses LC404.
Printer firmware updates can sometimes change how compatible cartridges are recognized. If your printer provides firmware-update preferences, review those settings before future automatic updates.
If recognition has already changed, first confirm compatibility, remove protective material, reseat the cartridge in the correct color slot, restart the printer, and review whether a recent firmware update occurred.
