Stepper motor lubrication.

Hi,

I am currently doing a major maintenance on my printer and I am interested in knowing if it is necessary to lubricate the stepper motors. From my experience one should not but i'm interested in hearing what the Prusa communities thoughts are on this and if you are lubricating them what are you using as it would have to be an oil?

Tack

As I have seen it on different models of stepper motors all of them have ball bearings wich are lubricated  for lifetime. So no need to put oil there.

Think of your old fashioned printer. The kind that uses paper.

You never grease that stepper either. Same reason.
