          This isn't as bad as toner. Worth a shot. Given all the trouble with OEM.

            A side question..Does any manufacturer have a charge roller that will go 600K?

            Cheers...

              Kyocera modified these rollers

                I've been using the aftermarket rollers since they started selling them on ebay pretty cheap. Takes about 3 weeks to come in, but I order the 4 pack to get a better price. In the beginning from the first supplier I tried, every one of them had issues, mostly knicks in the roller during manufacturing that showed up on the copies. However, I decided to try it one more time when another Chinese supplier started selling them and haven't had any problems yet and I've been through about half a dozen. It' nice to be able to replace them whenever I feel like it and not worry about cost.

                  Same here, have ordered about 2 dozen from China with one bad one that was replaced at no charge on my next order. 10 to 21 day transit time, but an inexpensive alternative to oem. Still tracking long-term reliability though....all of mine have less than 50K on them.
