HP97 printer gear replacement
After a long search, I found a supplier for the replacement of the rubber gear in Germany.
The bore I had to increase from 2mm to 2.38mm and with some sandpaper I had to reduce the thickness by 0.1mm. But now the brass gear runs perfectly. I have the running surfaces with little oil. Nevertheless, the printer makes noise as a saw. Now the supply for the European HP97 printers is ensured :-) http://www.modellbauershop.de/zahnraeder...3-30-z.php Produkt-ID: 390760 Price €11,25 Hans-Peter |

RE: HP97 printer gear replacement
By the way, you mentioned "european HP 97".
Are there diferences in the gear measures between the 97's? TIA |

RE: HP97 printer gear replacement
Not only for the European also the other Countries who would be delivered from the company.
In the other case I will make a collective order for overseas HP97, if the delivery should not go. I think Geoff was already in a forum in the search for the gears and he wanted about 40 pieces, if I remember correctly. HP ;-) |

RE: HP97 printer gear replacement
This gear is a better replacement:
http://www.modellbauershop.de/zahnraeder...30-z-1.php It's cheaper and you don't need to reduce the thickness. But you still have to widen the hole. There has been a post about it: http://www.hpmuseum.org/forum/thread-601...l#pid53789 |

Hi folks,

I purchased from "GHW Modellbauversand" this part: "Stirnrad Mod. 0,3 Messing - 30 Z" Part number #753030 each 3,15 EUR https://ghw-modellbau.de/product_info.ph...anguage=en The gear fits perfect, only the hole is to small I drilled the hole to 2,4mm (we have a lathe at work) no further modifications required! thanks to the forum for the great tip!!! cheers!

RE: HP97 printer gear replacement
I just got an HP-97. The middle gear in the printer is broken. It doesn’t seem to be rubber, it is some beige plastic. It sits between the motor and printhead gear. Is this part the one mentioned above, or, do I need a different one?
Also, I get “error” when I attempt to insert a card, and the card reader seems to not engage the motor. I need to troubleshoot this more. I am guesding it sees the card, but fails to start motor. Will need to nose around with svope. Thoughts? Thanks, Mark |

Hi Mark,
I recently 3D-printed a few of these gears and they seem to work ok. (the top ones are what was left of the original gears :-) ) Regards, Bas (12-09-2021 06:31 PM)pipesm Wrote: I just got an HP-97.

I think that HP manufactured this specific gear from plastic for a reason and that replacing it by a metal one may not be a good idea. Apart from that I believe in restoring calculators (and other equipment as well) as close to the original as possible. |

(the top ones are what was left of the original gears :-) I believe this too and mentioned awhile back that it may be due to the fact that if the PIK chip or home switch failed, the motor could keep running and drive the print carriage into the printer frame and cause a motor stall and subsequent damage. It is possible that this gear is sacrificial in this type of fail. It may also keep the printer noise low. cheers Tony |

RE: HP97 printer gear replacement
Edit: accounted for now. I've one final one but it is longer and doesn't have the boss/peen section. It would need to be carefully cut down into two.
I've got a couple of the GHW Modellbauversand gears I'm happy to send to needy 97 owners for free. The catch is that we're in the middle of a 2300km house move and everything is in storage. There is no chance I'll be able to get access to them before May next year and possibly later. They've been drilled out on a lathe and they work great. Pauli |
