Product Overview

AI-generated summary

If you’re running a Phaser 6510 or WorkCentre 6515 regularly, this Xerox cyan drum unit is a sensible “keep the office printing” purchase. Xerox pricing at just under £100 ex‑VAT isn’t cheap, but it’s not completely out of step for OEM consumables either—and the real value is reliability. OEM drum parts tend to behave predictably with the printer’s imaging and colour calibration, so you’re less likely to spend time troubleshooting streaks or odd colour shifts that often show up with cheaper alternatives.

That said, I wouldn’t buy it if you only print occasionally or if you’re trying to squeeze every penny—your cost per usable page can end up looking worse once you factor in swapping before you truly need to. Also, if your printer already struggles with image quality, swapping the drum alone may not solve the root cause (cleaning, charge/transfer issues, or toner handling can be the culprit). Who should buy? Teams printing consistently in-house and who value “fit and forget” over bargain hunting. Who should avoid? Light users, anyone budget-driven, or those who are seeing broader print defects and want to diagnose first rather than just replace parts.
