HP 828A Magenta Imaging Drum — Color LaserJet Enterprise M855 M880
30,000 pagesGenuine HPMagentaColor LaserJet Enterprise M855 M880
The HP 828A Magenta (CF365A) is the original HP magenta imaging drum for the Color LaserJet Enterprise M855 M880, rated by HP at an average of 30,000 pages. It is the long-life drum unit that transfers the image to paper — it carries no toner — and it is meant for offices running these A3 colour enterprise machines that see a drum replacement message for the magenta position.
Before ordering, match it to your printer: the confirmed models are HP Color LaserJet Enterprise M855 series (e.g. M855dn), HP Color LaserJet Enterprise flow MFP M880 series (e.g. M880z, M880z+). Toner and drum part numbers in the same family look almost identical, so the sections below spell out which neighbouring parts are different and what this one will not do.
Genuine HP supplies are made for this printer family: the chip reports levels correctly, the toner is matched to the fuser and the drum, and print density stays consistent from the first page to the last. For offices that print contracts, invoices or colour marketing pages, that consistency matters more than a lower shelf price, and it avoids the error messages and service calls that badly made cartridges can cause.
Before you order: This is the magenta imaging drum only. It does not contain toner and it does not replace the other three drums — order the toner (HP 827A) and other colours separately.

What It Means in Practice
- At 30,000 pages the drum lasts far longer than a single toner cartridge, so you replace it only when the printer reports the magenta drum at end of life — not with every toner change.
- The printer control panel and its web page show the remaining level; order the replacement when the first low warning appears, so you are never stopped mid-job.
- The yield is an HP average; heavy-coverage colour pages wear the drum faster, mostly-text pages slower.
- Swapping the drum does not reset or replace toner — keep an HP 827A magenta toner on hand as well.
- Return the used drum through HP Planet Partners — free return.
What Will Not Work
- It is a drum only — it contains no toner; the M855 / M880 magenta toner is an HP 827A cartridge, sold separately
- It replaces only the magenta drum; the black, cyan and yellow drums are separate 828A parts
- Printers not on the list above — even when the cartridge looks the same, the chip and fittings differ between families.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to change the toner when I change the drum?
No. Toner and drum are separate parts with separate lifetimes. Replace the drum when the printer reports it; replace the 827A toner when that runs out.
Does double-sided printing change the page yield?
Yield is measured on standard test pages per printed side. Printing duplex uses the same toner per side, so you get the same number of printed sides on fewer sheets of paper.
Will a genuine cartridge affect my printer warranty?
A genuine HP cartridge is the supply the printer was designed and tested with, so it fully respects the printer maker's conditions. With third-party cartridges the answer depends on the printer maker's own terms.
How do I recycle the empty one?

Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
The most common supplies mistake we see is ordering the right family with the wrong letter — a standard instead of a high-yield cartridge, a toner instead of a drum, or a cartridge from a sister model that looks identical. This HP 828A is the correct imaging drum for the Color LaserJet Enterprise M855 M880; the related parts listed above are not interchangeable with it. You can compare all genuine cartridges in our
original toner cartridges range.
✓ Buy it if your printer is on the compatible list above (Color LaserJet Enterprise M855 M880) and it asks for a new magenta drum.
✕ Skip it if your printer is not on the compatible list, or you actually need toner (HP 827A) rather than a drum.
→ Also consider CF358A / CF359A / CF364A — HP 828A black, cyan and yellow drums (30,000 pages each)
