    Advanced IR C5051 Drum Unit OEM or Compatible?

    PR sells both at about a Benjamin difference.

    I'm not familiar with these, but need to quote a customer on all 4 drums. OEMs would be around $300 a piece.

    Does compatibles work well on this model, or should I stay way from it like the plague?

    Thanks for any feedback.

          I've tried a few compatibles all give copy quality or wrong colour conversion issues & don't last as long as genuine.

          But for general office printing they are OK.

            hi,

            we use 2776 drums which is the mono drum on all colours, its pretty good for most office work, schools etc, where the colour CQ isnt noticed by the customer. Higher end users, Architects , designers etc, use the colour drums for the colour and 2776 for the mono. Admin say that the 2776 are way cheaper.
