Remanufactured drums

[R. Levor]

I have a Brother HL-5140 for about 2.5 years now and the second drum has
developed a spot. I have followed instructions to try to clean it -
it's a little better but not good enough. I am a very low volume user. I
may be crazy for not junking the printer at this point, but I was
wondering what you all think about remanufactured drums from one of the
online ink/toner outfits. Thanks for any help.

You should not have any problem with compatible drum units from any reputable
supplier. The drum unit is easy to remanufacture, so provided the supplier
purchases a quality drum the result should be as good as an original Brother
unit except it will be cheaper of course.

THATS THE TRICK. IT IS DIFFICULT TO TELL WHO THE REPUTABLE SUPPLIERS
ARE AND WHO DID THE REMAN. IF IT WAS THE FACTORY WHO MADE THE PRINTER
THEN YOU GOTTA CHANCE.

THAT MAY BE A JOKE.

Now Measekite has suddenly become an expert in Laser printers as well as
inkjets! As I have previously remarked, Measekite deliberately lies to try to
make some sort of inane point and in the process can do damage.
The fact is that there are far more solid statistics concerning the
remanufacture of Laser drum units and Toner carts than there are for inkjets.
The Laser remanufacturing industry is simply massive, failure rate for
remanufactured consumables and OEM consumables is well below 5%. There is a
good reason for this, it is less complex to do this work than it is to refill
ink cartridges because the technology is far less complex and there is a
plethora of excellent suppliers of components, one of the largest in the world
is Static Control Corporation, an American multi billion dollar company who
have been in business for decades manufacturing static related and laser
components and toner. You can absolutely trust this very professional company
as you can trust several others. SCC have resellers world wide and a very large
proportiion of remanufacturers use their products and they are a superb Brand
by any definition (no I don't have shares in the company, but I do buy their
products). It should be easy to find a reputable and professional supplier of
compatible drum units in your locality, or order one from one of the large
suppliers. I seriously doubt you will have any trouble.

TONY IS IN THE BUSINESS AND IS LIEING ABOUT ME. MY ONLY SUGGESTION IS
TO SEE IF THERE ARE FACTORY REMAN DRUMS FOR THAT IS THE ONLY WAY YOU
WILL EVER KNOW IF IT MEETS FACTORY SEPECIFICATIONS. THERE IS NOTHING TO
LIE ABOUT. THIS MAKES SENSE. ANYONE WHO TELLS YOU DIFFERENT IS LYING
AND PROBABLY HAS A MONETARY INTEREST IN WHAT PEOPLE DO.

I AM NOT ADVISING YOU TO PURCHASE AN EXPENSIVE OEM DRUM BUT I SUGGESTED
YOU TO FIND OUT IF THE FACTORY SELLS REFURBISHED OR REMAN DRUMS.

Didn't mean to start a war, guys - appreciate the suggestions, Tony.

You really do know nothing, there are almost no remanufactured or refurbished
laser drums (at best they would constitute about 2-3% of the industry).
The vast majority of compatible drums are manufactured completely from scratch,
so they are brand new and made to high standards with full warranty.
Some of them are superior to some OEM drums because they are long life and will
print more pages than the originals.

IS TONY A RESELLER??????

Actually no, we do not sell parts or components. Are you a Troll?

AHA IN DA BUSINESS

I have never hidden that as you very well know, why should I, I have nothing to
be ashamed of. You have been caught out in another lie, you are the one that
should be ashamed.

NO ARE YOU

I have never hidden that as you very well know,

YOU ONLY DISCLOSE THAT WHEN I CONFRONT YOU. IF YOU ARE NOT CONFRONTED
YOU PROVIDE YOUR SLANTED ADVICE WITHOUT DISCLOSING THAT TO THE ORIGINAL
POSTER. YOU NEED TO BE PROMPTED.

why should I, I have nothing to
be ashamed of. You have been caught out in another lie, you are the one that
