I have a clue ...

Finally I managed to check that it's a resistor. Unfortunately it is
burnt so I cannot measure its resistance now. I don?t have any idea
what kind of resistor should I use to replace it. Does anyone know its
resistance? I?ll explain once more what element it is - just in case.
So it?s a small black resistor attached to metal plate that has a
cleaner brush on it (in Brother's DR-6000/DR-400 drum unit). If
someone tell me its resistance I could replace it with normal
resistor.

Take the resistor to an electronics shop.

Why? What will they be able to do?

^^^^^^^^
He needs to know the resitance value of the component. It's burnt out so
he can't measure it with a meter. I'm, assuming there's no visible
markings (if there ever was) since I'm sure he'd have said so if there
was. ;-)

xtalsinger@yahoo.com is a valid reply-to address but I don't check it every day.

Are you sure it's an ordinary resistor? It may have been a thermistor
with a temperature-variable characteristic
