    Looking for a broken fusing unit for Konica Minolta Bizhub c452

    So long story short my c452 has a gear that wore down inside the fusing unit. It's the first gear inside the fusing unit that meshes with the drive gear. All the other gears are fine and after close inspection whoever last worked on this machine didn't seat the unit properly and this is what caused the gear to wear down. I don't have a part number (checked in the parts manual) since these are sold as a whole assembly which cost $600 and we are a smaller business trying to save a good bit of money if possible, I'm hoping one of you fine folks might have a spare unit laying around i can pull the gear from? Any help would be greatly appreciated

      I've lost count of the amount of used ones that I've thrown away over the years. Unfortunately, I rarely see these models anymore, but I'll keep you in mind if I come across one.

              Sorry, couldn't resist.
              It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

              Hit it.

                  Most of the gears on the fuser are available to order:

                      That looks like the gear that connects from the outside of the fusing unit... Or does it mesh with the same gear on the inside?

                          It's the Fuser Drive Gear that has 24 teeth.
