Roller Cleaning

[pperry]

Hello Everyone,

I've found multiple posts about roller cleaning, but the newest one that I found was from 2015. I'm wondering if I can get some updated suggestions on what to use to clean the grey rubber rollers on Kyocera MFPs. I know that alcohol will damage, them, and I've seen water used, but does it matter whether it is tap water, distilled water, etc.?

Thank You for your help.

Is that just a type, or the brand name?

Anything they removes the white paper pulp & turns them grey again

However they cost peanuts so simply replace with new.

In that case, I agree with copier tech, just replace them. If you need to clean and alcohol is damaging them, I'd suggest diluting with distilled water - 50/50.

Where would everyone suggest that I order them from? I'm probably going to have to use a source that will take a PO. I'm new to this schools system, so I'm not sure on all of the policies, when it comes to ordering supplies.
