After testing some of compatible inks for my 195C I turned back to Brother Ink, as this, in my view has the best quality. There is especially no problem with the "drying up". The cheap inks also often left behind a not satisfactory print image. The price for the Value Pack convinced. One annoyance is that the product has not been shipped as shown in the outer packaging, but individually welded. The origin of the cartridges and their printing capacity remains uncertain.
