Using non-Brother supplies may affect the hardware performance, print quality and machine reliability. Each individual component is designed to work with the other to ensure quality and reliability. Each Brother laser printer is designed to work at pre-set temperatures that are matched exactly to each of our individual toner formulations. Because we have no control over the many factors that determine the actual drum life, we cannot guarantee a minimum number of pages that will be printed by your drum.īrother strongly recommends that customers use only genuine Brother drum units and/or toner cartridges. The actual number of pages that your drum will print may be significantly less than this estimate. Under ideal conditions, the average drum life is estimated at approximately 15,000 pages.

There are many factors that determine the actual drum life, such as the temperature, humidity, type of paper, type of toner used and so on. Use the drum unit until you have a print quality problem, then replace the drum unit with a new one.

NOTE: Even if the remaining life of the drum is displayed as 0%, you can continue to use your current drum unit. If you reset the drum counter during the life of a USED drum, then the drum life will NOT be accurate.

The remaining life of the drum unit will be accurate if you reset the drum counter ONLY when you install a NEW drum unit.
