Product history and market context
The Brother MFC-J1205W uses LC404 cartridges in the accepted INKS.info compatibility graph.
No single lifecycle label applies across both markets. The accepted Canada record marks MFC-J1205W discontinued, while the accepted United States record remains lifecycle-unknown while current manufacturer documentation remains live. INKS.info should preserve the market-specific states rather than copy one market's lifecycle to the other.
Inspect the evidence decision
A generated FAQ statement on one Brother Canada product page mentions LC406, but stronger Brother evidence identifies LC404: the product's Supplies section, LC404 product pages, and Brother Canada and U.S. support all support LC404. INKS.info therefore keeps the LC406 statement as rejected audit evidence and does not publish it as an alternate compatibility option.
One generated Brother Canada FAQ statement mentions LC406, but the product's Supplies section, LC404 product pages, and Brother Canada and U.S. support agree on LC404. The LC406 statement is retained only as rejected audit evidence.
