5. Frequently Asked Questions
Is the HP 120A a toner cartridge?
No. This is an imaging drum, which is a separate component from the toner cartridges. While toner provides the “ink” (powder), the imaging drum is the part that transfers that powder onto the paper. Your printer requires both to function.
How do I know when it is time to replace the imaging drum?
Your HP printer will typically provide a “Replace Drum” or “Drum Life Low” warning on the display or through the HP Smart app. You may also notice vertical lines, streaks, or blurry patches on your printouts, which often indicates the drum is reaching the end of its functional life.
Does this drum work for both black and color printing?
Yes. In the HP Color Laser 150 and 170 series, a single imaging drum (W1120A) works in conjunction with all four toner cartridges (Black, Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow) to produce both monochrome and full-color documents.
