      Strange- GR(w) drums should work just fine in a GR3770, I think that the black drum would be a problem, due to the HD ink in the black, but color (w) drums should be interchangeable.

          Yes, since paper size is different, the problem may be a switch setting. If you have a working color drum, remove the front cover and look at the bank of switches on the drum board- make the non-working drum switches match the working drum, you should be okay.

            A GR colour drum will fit the 3770 but the black one won't unless you change the dip switches on the drums setting card. I would guess your problem lies with that card or the wiring to it. I had similar problems in the past. As it is same for 2 drums if they are both colour drums it could be the plug and socket that connect the drum to the riso.

              gotcha!
              thanks ddude, changing the switch setting helped.

              color (w) drum setting (us): R8 off, R9 off, R10 on, R11 off, R12 on, R13 off
              color (w) drum setting (europe): R8 off, R9 off, R10 off, R11 off, R12 on, R13 off
              black (w) drum setting (europe): R8 off, R9 off, R10 off, R11 off, R12 off, R13 on
