Likes: You will need to do both, including K dev unit. Replacing just the K drum won't get your developer back, which is now sitting in your waste toner box, along with the developer from the last dev unit.

The black toner is original
Is the figure 20 MAIN DRIVE SECTION in parts manual ref : A0EDM20000 .
Look in the manual pag 126 5.5.73 Developing clucth K CL6 for how to remove it .
OK thank
In your case you had to replace the dev bk too? In addition to the clutch
Check to see if the K developer unit is turning, if its packed full of toner clear to the top, its usually a sign its not, and that clutch mentioned is bad. If you run with the cover open, and place your fingers on the k developer, should feel some vibration if the auger is turning.
C220 has separate dev and drum.
