oh yeah, it will work alright but doesnt surprised me....... but do you know why drum gears are made of plastic materials....

made of what is not important to me ,the ricoh do not sale the gear any more,what i wanna to do is cut the cost .

Nothing personal against you or your country. Just joking around. That does make sense after you specified the drive coupler.

now i see the different culture

OK, now I follow you. And you are right, these are the weak point of this and the 15/18 cmp pcus also. Two are on the mag roll and 3 are on the dev mixers. But arnt the copper ones noisy?
I think developer in the gears is what kills them. Not sure if copper will make that big a difference.
The life of the PCU is only 60k for the 22/27

Not true. I buy them all the time.
B039-3062 and 3060 on the mag roll. The part #s are from the 15/18 and 25/30 pcats. We dont replace the gears on the mixers as the seals are too delicate. Just replace the developer section.

yes ! u are right ! it will make noisy.u said the develop will kill them , what i do is make two holes in the bottom (under the 2 gears which on the develop mix stick) and let the developer go out through the two holes.
another problem is the vt vts will complication , and i change the toner supply mode to fixed 2 (2921=3)

that gear was made plastic bcoz there is a weakness in the design of that drum and dev drive.... now that you made it into a metal gear another gear will break and probably two at the same time.....

Well, good luck with that!
