The figure after the K drum Life tells you how much life there is left on the BLACK (K) drum. C indicates Cyan, M indicates Magenta and Y indicates Yellow.

Go to the USAGE MENU and look at the K DRUM LIFE setting. This will be a 2 digit percentage value. As you have just seen the message appear this will mean that the drum life remaining is ....whatever the 2 digit value displays.

The life expectancy of a drum is approximately 15,000 pages.

I have an Oki B4600. I recently replaced the drum & toner. The print is very light and part of the page is illegible.No error message is displayed. Please advise
The problem is most likely with your fuser and will need to be replaced. Contact Oki tech support and see if your printer is still under warranty, you will need to give them your printer's model number and serial number. Sometimes the cheapest solution is to replace the printer all together.

Fatal error 020: oki c5450
As far as 020 error is concerned it is the TNY on the controller board. If you take the controller board out (it's the board that the usb/network cable plugs into). You find 2 banks. Ones for memory, the other bank is your prom board they refer to as a TNY.

Toner Error
Check to make sure that the sensors are clean and play around with the lock arms. Reset the machine and also download the utility from the oki service website to get exact error message. http://www.okic3400.co.uk/library/downloads/utilities/c3300c3400smv1115.exe

Oki c3400 paper jam
Run Status Monitor and make sure it is really a paper jum that prevents printer from printing. It is very likely that another reason is in place. For instance - toner empty of change drum request. All of this causes the "Attention" LED to blink: it's not only paper jam that causes it.

That is a fuser erron code. Abnormal temperature. You will need to replace the fuser. Sometimes I have sen a buildup of toner on the thermistor. If you can get to it. You can try to clean the toner off. Be careful. Very hot.
