Gears for Canon iR3225 paper tray

thingiverse

I use a Canon iR3225 photo copier / printer / fax etc... but the gears on the paper tray broke, they were really poorly made. The gears adjusted the guides for the paper so you can use different sized paper, when you moved one guide, the gears would move the other guide, so that the paper is centered as it goes in the machine. Repair man wanted several hundred dollars because he couldn't replace the part, he would have to replace the whole tray, and he had a long way to drive. He said that this is a common problem with canon paper trays so I'm hoping this will help a wider base of people. Here is the fix, and they are better than the original because they don't require any hardware, the lip on the top and the bottom of the gear hold it place perfectly, I should sell this design to Canon, really, don't know why they didn't think of it.
