The drum life is measured in %. When you press starhead 28 starhead it takes you into service mode, press misc and that will give you the 'life' count of each of the four drums

dis reguard if u have not updated the Canon Firmware software to show correct drum pct. readings/

i change drums on copy/print counts-

What u mean

What u mean

Canon software now uses different calculations on Drum Life/ not sure what ver. firmware addressed it/ it only effects those shown pct's % on control panel

Just ride em till the die. They are rated for 40k base on 5% ratio.

thy are right. even they have same firm ware the reading cant be the same.just do base on the output print of each drums do pg 5 test print on each drum to know if they are still good.

don't believe everything you read about this drum % reading/ Engendering told me when I was there ,that chip in drum unit reads dev sleeve rotations , go figure - if customer is printing at 6% / to 8% coverage >letter copies/prints- u can run the Drums to over 300%/ Coverage is the killer / of Drum surface
