Have you replaced the drum? Usually means the charge grid and or corona wire is extremely dirty. Take drum out and swipe the blue tab on top of the drum unit back and forth several times. Typically when I get the drum error even after cleaning the drum unit the message will need to be reset again. If all else fails then replace the drum or check the drum contacts inside the printer.
