How to pick the right ink cartridge for Brother DCP-145C

Dear Customer, if you’re not sure which option to choose, follow these simple rules:

• If you print mostly documents, choose a black cartridge LC‑980 BK (or a 2‑pack/4‑pack for better economy).
• If your prints look fine except one color, replace only that color: LC‑980 C/M/Y.
• If you want the easiest full refresh, pick a CMYK multi pack (compatible or Original OEM).
• If quality suddenly drops after a long break in printing, consider a cleaning fluid before replacing everything.

Common Brother DCP-145C issues—and how ink and cleaning can help

Inkjet printers like the DCP-145C can be sensitive to long periods of inactivity. The most frequent symptoms we hear about are:

• Streaks or missing lines – often linked to dried nozzles; cleaning and fresh ink can restore output.
• Faded colors – a near-empty cartridge or clogged printhead may be the cause.
• Printer not used for weeks – preventive printing and occasional cleaning helps keep the system clear.

That’s why we offer not only ink for Brother DCP-145C, but also a dedicated fluid for cleaning heads—a practical tool when standard cleaning cycles aren’t enough.
