Compatible Black Drum Unit

This LD Products DR221 black drum unit replaces the Brother original in DCP 9020CDN, HL 3140CW, 3150CDN, 3170CDW, 3180CDW, MFC 9130CW, 9330CDW and 9340CDW printers. It uses dye-based ink and yields approximately 12000 pages. The unit is sold new and ships as a single cartridge. Regional compatibility is limited to printers purchased in the United States and Canada.

Before You Order

Confirm the exact model number on your current Brother printer matches one of the supported DCP, HL or MFC models listed. Verify the printer was originally purchased in the United States or Canada, as the drum unit will not work with devices from other regions. Check that you are replacing a black drum unit and not a colour drum or toner cartridge.

Replaces Brother DR221

This compatible drum directly substitutes the Brother DR221 black drum unit at a lower cost while delivering the same 12000-page yield. The upgrade is worthwhile when the printer signals drum end-of-life or print quality fades, and you want a new unit without paying the original-brand premium. It is not for users who need colour drums, toner cartridges or compatibility with printers outside the supported model list or region.

Questions about this item

Does the box contain only the DR221 black drum unit or do I also need to buy toner cartridges separately?

The listing contains one DR221 black drum unit. Toner cartridges are sold separately and are required for printing.

Should I choose this DR221 drum unit or a different capacity for my Brother HL 3170CDW?

This DR221 drum unit is rated for 12000 pages and is the standard capacity for the HL 3170CDW. No higher-capacity drum version is listed.

What does the 12000-page yield mean when the drum is installed in my MFC 9340CDW?

The 12000-page figure is an approximate yield for the drum unit itself; actual life depends on print coverage and usage patterns in the MFC 9340CDW.
