HP97 Printer Idle Gear - Dia C. Tran - 03-17-2003 I just got a 97 in good condition as a gift. The battery was shot but I have rebuilt the battery. It worked fine for a day and then the printer quit. I took it apart and found that the idle gear between the motor and the screw drive that drives the print head was stripped. I wonder where can I find the replacement gear short of getting a bad 97 to get the gear? Re: HP97 Printer Idle Gear - Katie Wasserman - 03-17-2003 This is a very common problem. Take a look at an article that I wrote about this here:
