2.2.2 DRIVE MECHANISM
The main motor [A] drives the drum [B] through a series of gears, a timing belt [C],
and the drum drive shaft [D]. The main motor assembly includes a drive controller,
which outputs a motor lock signal when the rotation speed is out of the specified
range.
The fly-wheel [E] on the end of the drum drive shaft stabilizes the rotation speed
(this prevents banding and jitter from appearing on printouts).
