I have a puzzle, for anyone willing to help!
I came across several of these DC motors, pulled from a Dell 3100CN Laser Printer. Unfortunately i cannot find any documentation on how these are configured. I have tried googling every combination on the part numbers listed on the outside casing, with no luck. Finally i ripped apart one of them to find a manufacture stamped on the PCB, a little research later i came across this PDF: http://www.nidec.com/admcmc/22h.pdf . This does appear to be the motor in question, but i am unable to figure out which of the 6 leads out of the motor correspond to the 8 available options on this motor. I would assume that the Red/Black leads are +/-, and that the motor runs at 24V (based upon the other components in this printer).
I have tried to connect a PWM and +5v (start stop control) from an Arduino to every other available pin, and cannot get it to turn
Here are pictures of the motor:
