    Yes, sir. Ceramic is a super-conductor that they use in electronics and they also used to have the world's sharpest knife with a ceramic blade. I used to go to some of Kyocera's trade shows when I was a dealer.


    Was it the Kyocera KM-6230 that had a ceramic drum that lasted 2-million copies? Been a long time...I forget.

      It is the Kyocera KM-6230. But it didn't last 2-million. It last 3.6 million pages:

        Wow, that's impressive !
        3,600,000 Pages sounds like it was big fat fella with super heavy duty coating.
        We went somehow off topic anyway but I'm interested in your expertise and we maybe can discuss it privately later.

          The drum was made out of ceramic. Ceramic is SUPER hard. I sold a bunch of KM-6230's back in the day. Don't ever remember having to replace a drum. I do remember the drums being expensive as hell if I needed to order one.

          As far as my expertise? I'm more up-to-date on compatible toner than I am MFPs. I was away from copiers for a long time. But if I can share anything...I'm glad to do it.
