I have several small DC motors removed from Lexmark laser printers. They are used to feed the paper from the paper trays. The motors have 5 wires, (red, Blue, green, gray and white. The Red and Blue wires are attached to the motor the other three are attached to a optical reader on the end.
The motor seems to run using the red and blue wires using anything from about 3 - 24VDC.
I have not been able to find much information on the motors. (web searches) except sources to buy replacements.
Does anyone have instructions for circuits/programs for controlling this type of motor. Monitor/check speed, change rotation if possible.
Thanks
