Imaging drum Prism DR-311K (black) is a replacement drum unit compatible with Minolta C220 and C224 series devices. Designed to form the latent image in monochrome laser printing, this drum unit restores consistent image transfer and helps maintain print quality across high-volume office or print-shop use. With an estimated yield of 105,000 pages, the unit is intended for extended maintenance cycles and to prolong the service life of compatible printers and multifunction devices.

Advantages

The Prism DR-311K drum offers stable image reproduction and uniform density across pages, reducing streaks and uneven shading. Its construction supports reliable contact with toner and paper, minimizing print defects and lowering the need for repeated prints. By replacing a worn drum with this unit, users can expect consistent monochrome output while maintaining operational uptime in busy environments.

How to use

Turn the printer off and allow the device to cool before attempting replacement. Open the device access panel according to the manufacturer’s service instructions, remove the spent drum unit with care, and install the Prism DR-311K in the indicated slot until it clicks or seats firmly. Close the access panel, power the device on, and run a test page or cleaning cycle as recommended by the printer to calibrate the new drum and stabilise print output.

Usage recommendations

Handle the drum unit by its casing to avoid touching the photosensitive surface. Store unused units in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. For consistent print quality, replace the drum unit when print defects such as streaks, ghosting, or density loss appear, or follow the device’s maintenance schedule. Use genuine or compatible toner designed for Minolta C220/C224 series to reduce wear and ensure optimal interaction with the drum.
