Can a low image drum lead to poor print quality?

Yes, when the message “Image drum near end of life” appears on your Oki printer, we recommend that you observe the print quality of the respective colour closely and have a spare drum ready, just in case.

If you are experiencing, what appears to be a worn drum when printing, but your image drum is ok or new, then check the temperature of the Transfer Media.

If the Transfer Media is too cold, then it may cause worn image drum-looking prints.
