Does anyone know how best to clean the rubber rollers on a printer? Do I use just water or some chemical? There's an awful lot of paper dust on them...

Thanks

Water and lint free cloth are fine.

Chemicals are not recommended when cleaning any parts of a printer. Chemicals can cause erosion. Best to clean printer with is distilled water and lint free cloth. (tap water contains microscopic minerals and compounds that can build up). Use tap water if distilled not available but avoid chemicals.
