Product Identity

The True Color Toner DR221M is a magenta drum unit built as a premium compatible replacement for Brother DR-221 originals. It is supplied new in a single pack and rated for approximately 12000 pages at five percent coverage. The unit fits a wide range of Brother colour laser printers and multifunction devices used in home offices and small businesses.

Best-Fit Buyers

This drum suits owners of Brother HL-3140CW, HL-3150CDN, HL-3170CDW, HL-3180CDW, DCP-9020CDN, MFC-9130CW, MFC-9330CDW or MFC-9340CDW machines who need a magenta drum refresh. It is not for users of monochrome-only Brother models, for printers that take separate toner and drum assemblies with different part numbers, or for anyone requiring a cyan, yellow or black drum instead of magenta.

Deciding Specification

The key figure is the 12000-page yield at five percent coverage, which determines how long the drum lasts before print quality degrades. Buyers should match this yield to their monthly volume to avoid premature replacement or unexpected downtime.

Questions about this item

Does the DR221M magenta drum unit require a separate magenta toner cartridge to operate?

Yes, the DR221M is a drum unit only and must be paired with a compatible magenta toner cartridge such as the TN-221M for printing.

Will the DR221M work in my Brother HL-3170CDW alongside the original black, cyan and yellow drums already installed?

Yes, the DR221M is compatible with the HL-3170CDW and can replace just the magenta drum while the other colour drums stay in place.

How can I confirm the DR221M is functioning correctly after installation?

Print a test page from the printer menu; magenta areas should appear even and sharp, and the control panel should show no drum-error warning for the magenta slot.
