Explanation
In many consumer and office laser printers, the imaging drum (also called the photosensitive drum or OPC drum) is packaged inside the toner cartridge as a single replaceable unit. This design simplifies maintenance because the drum is replaced at the same time as the toner, preventing degraded print quality from a worn drum. The fusing assembly (applies heat to bond toner), paper registration assembly (aligns paper), and image transfer assembly (transfers toner from drum to paper) are all separate components internal to the printer itself and are not part of the replaceable cartridge.
