A device for driving a pin that fastens a printer cartridge drum to a printer cartridge at least on one end of the printer cartridge drum, the device comprising a device body defining a device body recess and a shaft configured to be inserted in the device body recess and to be moved within the device body recess, wherein the movement of the shaft within the device body recess is configured to drive the pin and alter the attachment of the printer cartridge to the printer cartridge at the at least one end of the printer cartridge drum.
1. A device for driving a pin that fastens a printer cartridge drum to a drum axle, the pin comprising a first pin end that defines a pin recess and a second pin end opposite the first pin end, the device comprising:
a first shaft having a plurality of male threads protruding from and surrounding the first shaft;
a second shaft attached to the first shaft at a first end of the second shaft, the second shaft comprising a diameter that is smaller than the diameter of the first shaft, the second shaft further comprising a tapering end opposite the first end, the tapering end being configured to contact the pin at the first pin end and fit within the pin recess;
a shaft receiver defining a shaft receiver recess, the shaft receiver recess configured to accommodate the first shaft, the first shaft being moveable within the recess, wherein the movement of the first shaft is configured to drive the pin and detach the printer cartridge drum from the drum axle;
a C-shaped body, the shaft receiver being positioned on a first end of the body, the C-shaped body comprising a second end opposite the first end, the second end defining a second end recess, the second end recess being configured to receive the pin being driven by the first shaft;
an alignment pin shaft configured to hold the pin from the second pin end; and,
a tie comprising a first end attached to the C-shaped body and a second end attached to the alignment pin shaft.
2. The device of claim 1 , further comprising a shaft handle attached to the first shaft.
3. A device for driving a pin that fastens a printer cartridge drum to a printer cartridge on at least one end of the printer cartridge drum, the device comprising:
a device body defining a device body recess; and,
a shaft configured to be inserted in the device body recess and to be moved within the device body recess, wherein the movement of the shaft within the device body recess is configured to drive the pin and alter the attachment of the printer cartridge drum to the printer cartridge at the at least one end of the printer cartridge drum, wherein the shaft comprises a plurality of male threads protruding from the shaft, the shaft being configured to be moved within the device body recess by rotation.
4. The device of claim 3 , wherein the shaft comprises a tapered end and the pin comprises a first pin end, the first pin end defining a pin recess, wherein at least a portion of the tapered end of the shaft is configured to fit within the pin recess.
5. The device of claim 3 , wherein the pin comprises a first pin end, the first pin end defining a pin recess, wherein at least a portion of the shaft is configured to be secured within the pin recess.
6. The device of claim 3 , wherein the printer cartridge drum is attached to the printer cartridge by the pin inserted through a portion of the printer cartridge drum and a portion of a drum axle, the portion of the printer cartridge drum and the portion of the drum axle defining a pin passage extending through the portions, at least a portion of the shaft being configured to go through the pin passage.
7. A method of moving a pin configured to attach a printer cartridge drum to a portion of a printer cartridge, the pin passing through a pin passage defined by a printer cartridge drum portion and a drum axle portion, the method comprising:
providing a shaft configured to rotate within a recess defined by a tool body;
allowing the shaft to contact the pin; and
rotating the shaft to drive the pin.
8. The method of claim 7 further comprising detaching the pin from the printer cartridge drum portion and the drum axle portion thereby detaching the printer cartridge drum from the printer cartridge portion.
9. The method of claim 7 , wherein the tool body comprises a C-shaped structure, the C-shaped structure comprising a first end defining the recess where the shaft is positioned and a second end defining a second recess, the method further comprising aligning the second recess with the pin passage.
10. The method of claim 7 , further comprising allowing a portion of the shaft to enter the pin passage.
11. The method of claim 9 , further comprising:
providing a second shaft, the second shaft configured to be inserted through the second recess; and
inserting a portion of the second shaft through the pin passage.
12. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:
inserting a pin through the pin passage; and
driving the pin through the pin passage thereby attaching the printer drum to the printer cartridge portion.
13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the tool body comprises a C-shaped structure, the C-shaped structure comprising a first end defining the recess where the shaft is positioned and a second end defining a second recess, the method further comprising aligning the second recess with the pin passage and allowing the second recess to receive the pin.
14. The method of claim 13 , further comprising:
providing a second shaft, the second shaft configured to be inserted through the second recess;
inserting a portion of the second shaft through the pin passage; and
allowing the portion of the second shaft to contact the pin.
