Trying to find on what printer or scanner was installed this motor assembly?

[AlainB]

This is a very nice little stepper motor assembly that I got from a printer or a scanner a few years ago. I dismantle a lot of of them at that time so I can not remember from where I got it.

The free run of the belt is about 15 inches and since the belt is very clean I suspect more that it was comming from a 14 inch scanner.

I would like to find another assembly like this one to make a XY table.

Any help to find the model and make of the printer or scanner that has this assembly would be quite welcome.

Thanks!

Alain

I disassembled many different Epson printers (and very few of other brands) I do not recall that stepper motor (the brand I mean).

It is a 12V stepper. Could be that this leads you to remember where it comes from?

Have you googled the brand?

On **broken link removed** i found that the motor assembly on the picture look pretty much like mine. It would come from an Epson Perfection 1640SU printer.

Maybe someone has this printer and could confirm that it is the assembly that I am looking for.

Looking at the service manual for the Epson Perfection 1640SU printer.

It is not the same as your motor assy.

Yes, it is not the same.

But on the picture on the french site it really look like the one I have.

But then he said that he dismantled a few scanners at that time. Maybe he made a mistake when he said that it was from an Epson Perfection 1640SU scanner.
