How to differentiate between the Brother DCP L2560DW Toner Cartridge and the drum unit?
The Brother DCP L2560DW printer uses Brother DCP L2560DW Toner Cartridge as consumable. This toner cartridge is a part of the drum unit and toner cartridge assembly that is placed in the printer. Both the parts of this unit are replaceable. To understand the difference between the toner cartridge and the drum unit, you need to pay attention on their structure and function. Note that both of these parts are important and the printing will not take place unless both of these are present. During the replacement of any of the parts great care need to be taken. Both of these parts are easily available online.

The Drum Unit:
The drum unit is the part that transfer the toner from the Brother DCP L2560DW Toner Cartridge onto the paper. A part within the drum unit is the photosensitive drum. The toner is put on this photosensitive drum which then prints the texts or images on the paper by the process of heating and pressure. If the print quality of the Brother DCP L2560DW printer is not up to the mark then the printer will display a message on the screen asking you to replace the drum unit.

The Toner Cartridge:
The toner cartridge is the part that contains the toner. Toner is a powdery ink that is used for printing. The toner from the toner cartridge goes into the drum unit and then heat pressed on the paper. When the toner is about to get over, the printer will display a message to replace the toner cartridges.

The toner cartridge and the drum unit need to be combined in order to use for printing. Once you place the toner cartridge in the slot present on the drum unit and give it a push, the toner cartridge will get locked into it. This assembly then goes into the printer.
