First check whether it is possible to buy a new drum for your model, if
possible buy a new drum then remove the toner from your printer,
separate the drum unit from the toner, if you check thoroughly the left
and right sides of the drum unit how the drum has been fixed in to it
you will be able to find the way remove drum from the unit, then replace
the new drum and fix it. Don not tough the edge wiper blade, rotate the
drum and check whether it rotating smoothly in both direction.
Three or four repeating marks down the page means there will be a spot or smudge of toner on drum unit. Open the front hatch and remover the toner and drum assembly. Separate the toner and drum. Rotate the drum cylinder using the white gear at one end looking carefully at the surface of the cylinder as you turn it. Somewhere on the surface you will see one or more black specks. These need to be cleaned off using alcohol (preferably Iso-propanol but methylated spirit will do)on a cotton ball (or very soft cloth or tissue paper). Once you have found and cleaned off all specks you can re-assemble the toner and drum, put it back in the printer and run a test page. That should fix your problem.
Out with the old and in with the new, you remove the toner and drum together, remove the toner from the old drum by pressing the blue lever on the side, install the toner in the new drum, and re install in the printer. With the front door open press the go button til all lights flash and then close the door, the new drum is reset.
There is issue with toner drum change that drum (It's in blue or green colour). the second option is change the toner with new one.
Your issue will be fixed.
If You can't change it. go to any printer repair or tonerrefiling shop they can replace the drum with new one.
