I have a Brother MFC-8660DN (all in one b/w laser printer) that has started to make a squeaking noise when printing.

What could be causing this noise and how can it be silenced?
 
How can the squeaking be silenced?

The noise appears to start when the printer starts warming up if that helps.
 
Do you know the print count on the current drum as well as total print count on the printer.

You can probably lube up the opposite side of where the gears are on rollers.

this isn't a laser but you can see where the gears are, and the shaft goes to the other side of the printer where it sits in a bushing, the bushing wears out and you can get squeaking, and lubing it up with some lithium grease may quiet it for a bit but it will probably start to squeak again.
