@squishymage42 @ifixcoinops As someone who prints a lot, don't buy a second replacement drum, more parts are about to fail. You only get two full drum lifetimes then get a new one.

@squishymage42 @ifixcoinops @elithebearded But did you really need to replace the drum? Toner and drum lifetimes can be reset in a secret menu. I usually get 3 toner lifetimes per cartridge with an occasional side to side shake to even it out. And I’m not sure I’ve ever replaced the drums.

@jkaniarz @squishymage42 @ifixcoinops I reset toner count down and replace when printing gets faint. Drums I never figured out how to reset but they can develop issues like nicks or scratches on the print surface and that shows up in prints so it's not a total scam, but your level of quality concern (exacerbated if you print on things other than plain paper putting the drum more at risk).
