Remove both snap rings and slide the axle to the left. If not, just replace the drum and be done with it. These steps assume you’re replacing the cleaning blade as well.Mine came covered with black plastic that I only removed in semi-darkness when everything else was done to be sure. Make sure not to expose the new drum to bright lights. And sorry, I didn’t manage to take any photos. As usual, I don’t take any responsibility for any mess, disaster or anything really. If you consider doing the job, make sure to cover the table etc.īelow are rought instructions for the job. Replacing it was relatively straightforward but a bit messy. At this point also the period for complaints had gone, so no way to get anything back if the new drum didn’t work. Then a couple more weeks to finally get around to trying the replacement. I believe that’s mostly due to the pandemic. It wouldn’t be a huge loss if I didn’t manage to fix the printer with these parts.įast forward more than two months it took to actually get the parts.

Since that was a way more affordable deal than the full unit, I decided to order one. I was almost ready to toss the printer when I found that the drum and cleaning blade can be ordered separately from Aliexpress (if the link doesn’t work, look for “1X CLT R407 CLP310 CLP315 CLX3170 CLX3175 OPC Drum Cleaning Blade for Samsung CLP 310 310n 315 315w CLX 3170 3170FN 3175 3185”). Nevertheless I suddenly got the issue when trying to print after a longer break. I’m still using the cartridges that came with the printer, so I can say it hasn’t been used that much. That’s way more than what the ink cartridges can do.
The drum unit should be good for printing some 24000 pages. And it’s not given that it will always fix the problem. Normal fix is to replace the drum unit (CLT-R409), but it’s prohibitely expensive compared to the value of the printer itself.

Samsung CLP-300 series (at least CLP-310, CPL-310N, CLP-315, CLP-315W) suffers from a common issue causing ghosting (faint copies of printed content) in the printouts.
