Replace the drum unit.
Follow the procedure below to replace drum unit.
The Brother machine has separate consumables the toner cartridge and the drum unit. Verify you replace only the drum unit and not the toner cartridge. If you want to know their difference, refer to "What is the difference between the toner cartridge and the drum unit?"
Do NOT use flammable substances or any type of spray to clean the inside or outside of the machine. Doing this may cause a fire or electrical shock.
For the order number (Order No.) of the drum unit, please refer to the User's guide provided with your Brother Printer or the Consumables & Options page of your model on Brother Solutions Center. To visit Consumables & Options page, click your model name link (e.g. HL-XXXX * ) on the top section and then click "Consumables & Options" link on the opened page. * XXXX stands for your model name.
Handle the toner cartridge carefully. If toner scatters on your hands or clothes, wipe or wash it off with cold water immediately.
Wait to unpack a Drum unit until immediately before you install it in the printer. If an unpacked Drum unit is subjected to excessive direct sunlight or room light, the unit may be damaged.
Make sure you install the Toner cartridge correctly, or it may separate from the Drum unit when you pick up the Drum unit assembly.
We recommend that you clean the printer when you replace the Drum unit.
