4 Things to Know About the Brother MFC-J4335DW's Ink System

It uses four individual ink cartridges The MFC-J4335DW is a cartridge-based inkjet with separate cyan, magenta, yellow, and black cartridges. You swap cartridges rather than refilling bottles.

It is not an ink tank model Unlike tank printers that use refillable bottles, this printer relies on traditional cartridges. That means higher per-page costs but a lower upfront price.

The upfront cost is lower than tank alternatives If you do not print at high volumes, the cartridge system keeps the initial purchase price down. Tank printers cost more upfront but save money over time for heavy users.

It suits light to moderate printing For someone who prints occasionally or in small batches, the cartridge system is practical. Heavy users should consider an ink tank model instead.
