    Mr. Clean brand Magic Eraser sponges, a couple drops of alcohol per wipe although I've heard water works well, too.

      People do this?

      I'll use a wire brush for the heavily coated rollers, otherwise a cloth with a small amount of belt cleaner on it works wonders.

        My brand new favorite, paraffin lamp oil. In the early days it was Dispersant, until it got really hard to get. Chemically I suspect that there isn't much of a difference.

        It's the best thing I've found for loosening adhesive from metal, drums, plastic, (but not rubber: degrades the rubber). If you're going to clean a drum keep it out of contact with the blade until you're rinsed it with alcohol.

        It works pretty good on developing rollers too. =^..^=
        If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
        1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
        2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
        3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
        4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
        5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.
