      Sounds like the drum unit was depleted of toner . You will have to put in new drum and new toner at same time.

            The toner entering port of the drum unit may be blocked cause the shutter does not open and/or the toner inside that port is hardened. Unfortunately as soon as the $#& machine believes that the toner cartridge is empty it writes this in the eprom of the toner cartridge blocking future use.

            You might try to get a single chip for the toner cartridge to get around this situation.
