How to change the cartridge for this model is important... so lets pay a close attention.
TN450 is the TONER cartridge and DR420is the DRUM unit. But when you remove it from your printer you will see just one cartridge.
That is when we start questioning the fact that whether we have received a correct cartridge or not. There will be a green tab located on the left side of the drum unit.
By pushing the tab downward the toner cartridge will pop up and releases. Then you will see two cartridge are separated and you can change the toner cartridge at this time. Place the new toner cartridge and slide it right into the drum unit.
