Is this the DRUM or the TONER, it states TONER but the picture and part number is for the DRUM?

this is the toner only. the casing, or drum if you call it, only comes with the new printer. you don't need to change the casing unless it is broken, and the 420 toner doesn't come with one. it will be very expensive if it does.

I replaced my drum about 3 years ago for my MFC 4800. From the markings on the package I concluded it was a genuine Brother. It worked well until about 2 months ago when it started leaving grey streaks. I'm not sure if the problem is the drum unit or the toner cartridge. Note also that I only use the unit as a printer. Also, I have found that the off-brand toner cartridges leave streaks. If your using an off brand toner cartridge, you might find replacing it with a Brother cartridge will solve the problem. Good luck.

Printer does come with drum & cartridge. Only use as network printer & only have computers (no ipads). Would not recommend this printer. Replacement toner cartridges have been difficult to find & print quality has been mediocre at best. Printer is not user friendly. Wish I had gone with HP in comparison analysis even though it had slightly higher operating cost.

It is genuine. I only buy the drums/toners sold by the Amazon seller "Brother." They are authentic Brother products (or at least all of them I've ordered so far have been!)

Sorry, I am not an expert, but I don't think this drum will work for your printer.Victor Gorodischer

Yes - the drum cartridge is separate from the toner. You do not need to replace the drum every time you replace the toner. The drum should last much longer. I have stuck with brother toner and drums as I have had issues (not necessarily with brother printers) using generic replacements.

The toner cartridges fit inside the drum unit. The toner cartridge it comes with is low capacity, so best to buy a toner pretty soon after buying the printer. The drum unit has to be replaced too, but not for quite a while. You'll use several toners before the drum gets replaced. The printer tells you the percentage of drum life left.

Not at all. It took couple of extra seconds to figure out how to remove the spent toner cartridge from the drum, using the included simple instruction sheet. But the new one just snapped into place, reinserted drum/toner unit, then restarted the printer which recognized the full toner right away. Very good deal!

The belt unit, drum unit and waste toner basket are considered replacement parts and are not covered under the warranty but you can purchase them from brother. I had to do this, then read the manual and you can reset the usage. You can keep trying to use it as is but will eventually have to replace the parts.

Toner (typical available at Office Supply) is 3000 pages. Ext Life is 8000. Drum says at 25000. Printer will tell you to change toner before you need to. Printer will also tell you to "Change Drum Soon" and when you do, will still tell you same thing even when going thru resets, etc. I have not been a big fan of my printer, but it has all the features I need that others just aren't offering (it is all small things, doesn't keep me from getting more work done--just maybe have to do a "work around" here or there.) The competition, well...they aren't competition--just look at their reviews for comprable features.

Its the drum unit and it just slides in as well as all the color and black toner cartridges

The toner drum prints the quantity as advertised. It is to be used in conjunction with the separate color cartridges which also includes a separate black cartridge.

It came ready to go. The toner lasted about 3 months (light to medium usage). have not had to replace the drum yet...

I got the 1 drum & 1 toner cartridge. The drum made such a horrible noise I was afraid it was going to damage my printer, and the toner only lasted through 1 ream of paper !!

Brother makes you purchase toner and drum separately. HP doesn't. That is one reason I've always loved HP machines, but now I'm in the market for an "all-in-one" and HP's choices are too large a footprint and high end for my needs. Their low end stuff is hit and miss apparently.

Might be bad Drum or Non OEM Drum. You might need tonier . Hard to say with out see the machine. Have service tec look at the machine.
