Hi
I have just taken out two electric motors from an old HP printer (Deskjet 3325).I wanted to know if these motors are actually DC motors or Stepper motors.I have never seen stepper motor before,but i did some research on the internet and i noticed that stepper motor usually have more than two wires coming out of the casing (In my case I have only two wires coming out of the motor). I wanted to know if it would possible to control these motors like the printer do with the help of a microcontroller.That is make the motors turn in step like the printer.
All that is written on the motor is a sort of code which is:-
C8941-60001
RD952510
Made in China
Can anybody help me in identifying the motor.
Thanx
