Pros & Cons
Cons
Only worked in machine for about a month. Print quality progressively degrades over time. One of the drums just grinds on the gears of the brother fax and makes loud clicking sounds. The drum is for my backup printer and does not see constant use.
Returned it for a refund of my purchase price. Buyer beware. What's even more fishy is that the seller is changing names.
At 300 dpi the printed page looks like a faded parchment. At 600 dpi there is spotty coverage with as much as one third of the page being too dim to read.
This product is not a brother oem drum. Spend the extra money and buy either a refurbished or new authentic brother drum unit. It says it was a original brother dr400 drum cartridge, but it is not.
Highlights
Quality
So far i am thoroughly pleased with this product.
I have more than happy with the drum - my copies are very sharp.
Since newer low end b&w lasers do not have the features or quality build of my hl-1440 i decided (at <$15) to give this a try.
Price
What i acquired was perfect; the printer is working like new at little cost.
Shipping
Just received this drum, shipping was very quick.
Competitiveness
Well worth the money and much cheaper than the name brand part.
Less cost than original brand name item and seems to work just as well

It started printing horizontal evenly spaced bands on the pages which according to the internets is not supposed to be caused by toner cartridge or drum unit but rather by a failing roller path

Replacing toner cartridge and cleaning the existing drum unit did not solve my problem
