Hi Michelle, Yes Black 17 is compatible with the Lexmark Z615. I know it works fine in our Lexmark Z615.

This printer uses black cartridge 98 and tri-color cartridge 95. They are available separately and in a combo pack. I don't know if there are any generic cartridges available for this device.

No, it looks like your printer uses the HP45 Black / HP78 Tri-Color cartridges.

Ah! So my printer is NOT broken! I initially had no trouble with this ink, but as of a few days ago, my printer malfunctioned, with an error code saying that it could not recognize the black ink cartridge. Now I know it's a problem with the cartridges and not the printer!

There is a list of all the printers that will work. Check and see if your printer is listed.

Yes i have been using them a while now. The black isnt a deep black. But its black enough. The ink is good for everyday printing. Dont expect photo quality prints. The color is a bit lighter

I always used HP XL cartridges, but without seeing what you have and only googling "generic 940xl" I believe it's the same. It also says all 940 XL are compatible with the 8500. Your printer should have the space to hold an XL black ink, but only normal size color.

I haven't tried that specific printer with these discs but they should work. Some folks have noted that blacks sometimes shift in color to dark blue with certain model printers on these discs. Perhaps try a small quantity and compare with traditional, non-glossy inkjet discs and see which you prefer. I think the glossy surface looks much more professional.

Yes. My printer uses two grays instead of black and you get better dynamic range in the grays. It's way better than any printer I've used before.

As long as your black ink cartridge has ink, you should be able to print with it. Usually the black runs out before the color though.

It will not. You can set it to print black only if you have a low color cartridge or color only if you have a low black cartridge but it requires both cartridges to run and will not print at all if one of them runs empty.I have had some bad experiences with this model. If you don't have it already, I wouldn't invest in it. Just a suggestion.

I called Brother to get this question answered: 1 (877) 276-8437. Yes it will print using only black ink, although it is not automatic. Go to Printer Preferences, Advanced tab, select color: check 'grey scale'. It was really a pleasure to help you with this. I learned something myself.

You don't . This printer is notorious for NOT working when printing black. I was sent new printing heads& new cartridges, neither of which solved the problem

Check the end of the box for a listing. If you printer is not there the answer is "No" and, believe me, the printer knows. My printer would not use this box of ink and I wish it would. My printer does not use all these colors.
