Excellent, Bob, thanks - far better info than I could glean from all my
web-surfing! I duly popped out the fuser unit and sure enough, the
central large plastic gear wheel is in bits. :-(


I think there are two gears...or is that on the other end?

Anyway, the 4+ and the 5 apparently use the same fuser (I just checked; I
knew the 4 used a different one to the 4+).

I'll have a look tomorrow (it's in an unlighted shed and it's raining
right now...)
