IS IT REPLACE TONER OR REPLACE DRUM. IF DRUM OPEN FRONT AS IF TO REPLACE TONER AND DRUM, LEAVE DOOR OPEN, DEPRESS I THINK MENU BUTTON OR ONE OF THOSE ON RIGHT SIDE OF KEYBOARD IT WILL ASK YOU REPLACE DRUM 1 FOR YES 2 FOR NO. IF COPY IS GOOD SAY REPLACE, IF COPY IS BAD, REPLACE DRUM, COMPATIBLES DO WORK.
Time to really order a new drum and really replace with a new one.
Resetting the drum unit will not improve print quality. It only resets your drum and allows you to continue to print. You decide when to replace the drum unit not the manufacturer!
1.Remove the drum unit and toner cartridge. Wait 1 or 2 minutes.
2.Replace the drum unit and toner cartridge into printer.
3.The error message "Change Drum Soon/Drum end soon" will continue to appear if the drum counter was not reset when you replace the drum unit.
4.To clear this error message, you need to reset the drum counter as instructed below.
5.Make sure that the machine is turned on.
6.Press Options.
To confirm you are installing a new drum, press 1.
7.When the LCD shows Accepted, close the front cover.
8.Your drum is now reset.
Yes, the display was saying "drum near end"....it was not saying to replace the drum,... you only replace the drum when it says "replace drum"....right now you have b;own the fuse in the new drum because you replaced it TOO SOON. You will have to find someone to replace the mini-fuse in the drum cartridge...it will still be ok...but soon you will not be able to print on the machine,,,READ THE USERS MANUAL.
The "replace drum soon" indicater is a warning for you to have a new replacement drum "on-hand". Soon the display will change to "REPLACE DRUM" AT WHICH TIME THE UNIT WILL STOP PRINTING.
When the new drum cartridge is then installed...the REPLACE DRUM indicator will be reset. DO NOT replace the drum before the machine says to.
Did you reset the drum counter? When you
replace the drum unit with a new one, you need to reset the drum unit
counter by completing the following steps:
Turn the the machine’s power switch back on.
Press Menu => Machine Info.
=> Reset Menu.
Press the Up or Down Arrow
key to choose Drum.
Press OK.
Press 1 to reset the drum unit counter.
Press Stop/Exit.
I hope this helps.
Cindy Wells (if you did the reset, you may need to talk to Brother Support. I'm assuming you used a Brother drum and only handled it by the handles.)
Wow. It's obscure and in the manual on page 13-24. Remove and replace the drum leaving the front cover open. Press CLEAR and then 1 to answser the Replace Drum YES question.
