We received the drum very quickly and it was very, very easy to replace. Not sure why it costs over $100, which is half what I paid for our printer, but it is a necessary part. I am glad it was so easy to install.

I spent quite a bit of time with the customer support to try so the things that are in the booklet and which I had already tried, then bought their drum kit and did it all again, and it still doesn't work. Even tried a new print cartridge! I now need to scrap the printer, the cartridge, and the drum kit. Won't be buying another one of these I can tell you.

Just replaced the drum and works like brand new again. Don't second guess, just buy the drum or buy a new printer same thing unless you want a different feature.

I had purchased a generic cartridge off Amazon and found it did not work. I called Brother he'll line. Over the phone my agent helped me figure out what I needed it arrived within two days and I am completely happy with the product and the service I received from the help line.

This isn't my 1st drum replacement. Install went smoothly as expected. I installed the drum because of a recurring notice my that indicated replacing the drum would fix the problem. It did.

My brother printer is old. The drum was busted. I ordered a new one and installed it and now is printing perfectly!

The previous drum unit became noisy sometime before the Replacement Warning appeared, but it never stopped making good copies. The machine quieted down with the new drum. This is a several-year-old refurbished machine that hasn't missed a beat. Shipment was super fast.

I have used mine for 6 years and used it. It?s black and white. It says replace photoconductor? I think that?s the drum? It shows the thing that holds in cartridge? I am not sure if I should get a new one or not. You can use Arthur ink if you want a generic brand. Mine got messed up cuz a paper jam. I don?t know if I should replace it or look at new ones. I just want black and white.

Fast shipper. Great customer service. Love all of brother products. Been using them in my home business for over 30 years.

I guess it is kind of like an automobile warranty, 3 years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first. Not complaining, as this has been a reliable printer for 6 years. Replaced drum and it works great. Almost decided on buying a new Brother printer as the drum is about half the price of a new printer, but bought the drum so I did not have to set up and configure a new printer.

Replaced the drum last week with a brand new unit and it still says it needs a new drum. I can find no information on how to fix this issue online.

We've used this printer for 2-3 years now, and love it. No problems, does what we want, and we're still impressed by speed. We're just now getting to the point of needing a new drum unit, and we'll see how that goes.

Just replaced my drum after 2 years of home use. Highly recommend it. Durable, lasts a long time, easy to install. No complaints! Thanks Brother!

I've had the same issue as others who have posted. The toner cartridge does not seem to last as long as expected. I'm not sure why this would be happening. When I first purchased this printer, the cartridge I used lasted a long time. = (

I use my laser printer for many small projects, but never abused. My drum states 86% life, and suddenly, after a print job I had horizontal lines across all my pages. I have gone through the process of cleaning the drum, the corona wire, and even attempted to find the "glass" that was suggested to be cleaned on the "roof" (could not find that on my unit. Didn't make any difference, and the drum itself has green pulling off the edges! Not sure I want to keep buying brother laser printers if I can't even get a full life cycle out of a DRUM!

Never had a problem with Brother toners or drums, until now. The end of February I purchased a new Brother drum and toner (in store purchase). They worked fine, until recently. The "clean corona wire" notification kept popping up. I'd do it, it would be fine for 1 or 2 pages, then I'd have to do it again. Also, there were piles of toner in the drum. This never happened before. I checked the remaining life for the drum (74%) and the toner (it was low). Did I get a dud/2 duds, or is Brother's quality lower than it used to be?

Rated fair because drum has ink but the approx 12,000 pages should be more like 300 pages. Unless you are printing one word per page then 12,000 would make sense.

I currently have printer indicated above. This cartridge does not work in this “older” printer. The company should know this. Not everyone can afford to replace a printer every few years. Why would a company do this to consumers. Just be honest and say we don’t support all of our printers.

It’s a great little machine easy to use. I only wish my older apple I pad could use the blue tooth.
