The Samsung CLT-R406 (Genuine Samsung product) is an essential maintenance part for your printer that is not to be confused with the toner cartridges. Its purpose is to move the toner powder from their cartridges to the paper during the activity of sending a printout request to your Samsung machine. Once your printer requires its replacement, a message will be displayed on the LCD screen such as ‘replace image drum’ or ‘replace imaging unit’. If you need a new one, we ship all products on a free next business day delivery, so you can be confident or a replacement in no time at all.
How long should the imaging unit last?
Unlike toner cartridges, maintenance parts such as the CLT-R406 will rarely need to be replaced. It would be quite a costly experience if you had to replace all cartridges and maintenance items once the printer ran low on toner so maintenance parts are created to be more robust and are able to last for a much longer period.
For example, this particular product lasts for 16000 print cycles, (where one printed page is equal to one print cycle) and a toner cartridge for the same printer can only last around 1000 prints. This means that the CLT-R406 should last for as many as 16 toner cartridge replacements before you will need a brand new one. You may even never need to replace the imaging unit if you use your printer infrequently however, if your printer is used a lot, you will need to replace it eventually.
How do I install the Samsung CLT-R406 Imaging unit?
You don’t need to be worried that installing a new imaging unit such as the CLT-R406 requires expert help from a technician because it’s very simple to do yourself and you won’t need any tools! Much like toner cartridges, this product simply slides in and out of the printer.
To install it, all you need to do is unplug the printer, open the front hatch where the toners are located, remove the toner cartridges and place them safely on a flat surface (preferably on some newspaper so not to risk any spillage marking the surface) and then remove the waste toner unit found on the left side of where the toners were. The imaging drum or unit is then sat behind the toners. Pull the existing one out and slide the new one into the same position, replace waste toner collector and toners. The new unit should now be correctly installed. For any other advice, we’d be happy to help!

Customer Questions (33)
Q
I have a Samsung C480FW printer and want a Samsung imaging unit. Will the CLT-R406 be ok?
15 July 2024
A
Yes, the CLT-R406 is the correct imaging unit for the Samsung C480FW printer.
Q
Me again…the printer is a Samsung Xpress C480W? Is it compatible?
03 January 2024
A
Yes it is compatible / correct.
Q
Hi, does this fit a Samsung CLT-P404C printer?
03 January 2024
A
Hi, CLT-P404C is a toner 4 pack code not a printer model. If you let me know your printer model, I can double check for you.
Q
Hello,
does this work with the Xpress C480FW?
I can't see an exact match on the compatible models list, could you please advise?
Many thanks,
Ellie.
08 December 2023
A
Hi there, yes it does work with the Samsung Xpress C480FW. It's the same printer as the SL-C480FW.
Q
I have a Samsung Xpress C430W printer and I am getting a regular pattern of pale blue spots on every print.
I have replaced the fuser unit (purchased from you last week).
What item do you think is causing my problem?
Kind Regards,
James.
30 November 2021
A
Hi James, please could you get in contact with our customer care team on 0345 365 3605, or if you'd prefer you can email [email protected], and they will help rectify this for you.
Q
I need a new imaging unit for a Samsung Xpress C480W
12 January 2021
A
Hi there, I can confirm this is the correct product (CLT-R406).
Q
Is the unit compatible with the Samsung Xpress c430w?
09 December 2020
A
Yes that is correct, if you'd like to place an order over the phone please call on 0345 365 3605
Q
Hi,
my printer c480W says I need to replace the transfer belt and fuser unit,
does this imaging unit include those parts?
thank you,
Guilain.
30 October 2020
A
Hi Guilain, no the imaging unit is only a drum. The fuser unit and transfer belt are both bought separately. If you search for your printer model and visit the page where all cartridges are listed for your machine, you will find them at the bottom of the page under the maintenance section. Alternatively, if you let me know what printer model you have, I can direct you to the correct one.
Q
The printer message comes up saying "REPLACE TRANSFER BELT UNIT", is this what I need?
21 October 2020
A
Hi there, no this is a drum unit (or imaging unit). A transfer belt is like a conveyor belt that moves the paper through the printer. The product description will say 'transfer belt'. If you can let us know your printer model, we'd be happy to help you find the correct one for your machine.
Q
Will this drum unit work in a CLP 320?
15 October 2020
A
Hi, this will not fit your machine. Here is the product you need https://www.tonergiant.co.uk/product/Samsung-CLT-R407-Imaging-Unit-CLT-R407-4927/
Q
Will this item work on a Samsung Laser ProXpress M4020ND?
If not, do you stock a Drum unit and what price, please?
Thanks
08 October 2020
A
Hi there, this isn't the correct product. I don't believe you can buy a separate drum unit for the Samsung M4020ND, it would normally be built into the toner cartridge.
Q
Hi, will this work in a Samsung Proxpress M3820ND?
05 October 2020
A
Hi there, unfortunately, no it won't. I'm afraid we're unable to get the replacement imaging unit for the Samsung M3820ND.
Q
Is this imaging unit compatible with Samsung c480w? Thank you.
08 July 2020
A
Hi there, yes it is. That's correct.
Q
Will this work with a Samsung CLX3305 printer? Please confirm it is 100% compatible.
Thanks.
06 July 2020
A
Hi there, yes it is compatible with the CLX3305.
Q
Hi,
I am getting green smears across my prints. Is this likely to be the drum at fault?
Many thanks.
16 June 2020
A
Hi there, are a number of reasons why this might be happening, but you are correct, the drum unit might need replacing. We have an article on our blog which will help you determine what needs to be changed, which can be found here.
Q
Are the CLT-R 406 16,000 mono and 4000 colour pages?
14 April 2020
A
Hi, it should be 16000 pages for both mono or colour use.
Q
Hello, do you have the "Samsung CLT-R406 imaging unit"
in your stock? When can you send it if there is stock? Thank you.
13 April 2020
A
Hi there, these are indeed in stock and would arrive tomorrow anywhere in the UK when ordered before 5:30 pm.
Q
Will this work in a Samsung Xpress C480W?
13 February 2020
A
Hi there, yes it will indeed!
Q
Will the CLT-R406 imaging unit work in a Samsung Xpress C480FW printer?
30 January 2020
A
Hi there, yes that's correct, it does work in the C480FW printer.
Q
Hi, will the CLT-R406 imaging unit fit my Samsung Xpress C430W?
08 November 2019
A
Hi, Yes, this will work in the C430W printer.
Q
Hi, will the CLT-R406 imaging unit fit my Samsung Xpress C480W printer - it doesn't appear to be specifically on the left-hand side page list, thanks.
28 August 2019
A
Hi there, yes this is the correct imaging unit. For some strange reason, Samsung has a version of your printer model with an SL- before it. SL-C480W is the exact same printer
Q
Will this fit the xpress c460fw colour?
Thanks,
Robbie.
06 August 2019
A
Hi Robbie, it will indeed fit the Samsung Xpress C460fw printer.
Q
What is compatible with the CLT-R406?
24 July 2019
A
Hi there, you can find the full list of printers that the Samsung CLT-R406 goes in on the right column of the web page, next to the text section. If you'd like any more help, please let us know.
Q
I have a Samsung 320 printer, which according to Samsung should be replaced by an imaging (drum) unit CLT-R407. Does that mean I can use your Samsung R406?
Which imaging unit will work in my Samsung Xpress C480FW? Thanks.
17 June 2019
A
Hi there, you're on the correct page. It's the CLT-R406 imaging unit for your printer.
Q
I'd like a Samsung imaging unit for an m288x.
Please provide a price.
04 April 2019
A
Hi there, I'm happy to find the correct item for you but M288X is the series number so your model will be more specific like M2885FW or something similar. If we get your model wrong, I might suggest the incorrect imaging unit. I believe it is likely to be this one: https://www.tonergiant.co.uk/product/Samsung-MLT-R116-Imaging-Unit-MLT-R116-83785/ but please check the compatible printers on the right side of the page to make sure your model is there. If there's anything else we can help with, please let us know.
Q
I have a Samsung Xpress C480W and need a new imaging unit. Which one is compatible with my printer?
11 January 2019
A
This imaging unit will work in your Samsung Xpress C480W printer.
Q
Hi,
does the Samsung CLT-R406 imaging unit work for the C480FW Samsung printer?
Thanks,
Miles.
05 October 2018
A
Yes it does, the CLTR406 imaging unit is the correct product for a Samsung Xpress C480FW printer.
Q
Hello,
I have a Samsung Xpress C460 FW printer and it says I now need a new imaging unit. Could you please advise me on the correct product I need to purchase?
Thank you, Randi.
24 September 2018
A
Hi Randi,
the correct product that you're looking for is the one on this page (Samsung CLT-R406 Imaging unit). If you need any more help, please let us know!
Q
Do You ship to Finland? What is the cost?
28 May 2018
A
Hi there, unfortunately, we don't ship anywhere outside of the United Kingdom.
Q
Does this also fit the Xpress C480FW printer as it is not listed as being compatible?
21 November 2017
A
Hi there, yes that's correct it's listed as the SL-C480FW which is another name for the Xpress C480FW. You can find all cartridges for your printer here: https://www.tonergiant.co.uk/model/Samsung-SL-C480FW-toner-cartridges/
Q
Is this an imaging unit and is it ok for the Xpress C430W?
01 March 2017
A
Hi there, yes that is correct. This is the Samsung CLT-R406 imaging unit that can be used in the Xpress C430W printer.
Q
Can the CLT-R406 imaging unit be recycled back to Samsung, or does it simply need to be taken to the local recycling centre?
09 November 2016
A
Hi there, you can find information about the Samsung recycling initiative on this page here: https://support-prc.samsung.com/star_b2b/pages/home.aspx
We also have a recycling process ourselves here: https://www.tonergiant.co.uk/recycling/
