DRUM
LIFE
The life of an image drum depends on a number of factors, including temperature and
humidity, the type of paper used, and the number of pages per job.
The image drum should last approximately 25,000 pages continuous printing. This number
is approximate because different numbers of pages are printed each time and the
environmental conditions and the paper type used may vary.
