Inside
the printer fuser assembly, there are two pieces of rollers, upper fuser roller or fuser roller, and lower
fuser roller or pressure roller, the upper fuser roller is a high quality
aluminium tube coated with teflon, with a heating element inside, sometimes, we
can use a fuser film sleeve to instead of the upper fuser roller. The lower
pressure roller is a soft rubber roller.
The
best way to clean a fuser roller is to use isopropyl alcohol if you haven't a
specific cleaning fluid, just don't use rubbing alcohol, it may contain
ingredients that can leave a residue on the fuser surface, you can also use a
very light coat of silicon oil and a non linty rag. When the rollers are clean,
dry them with another cloth. You can fully disassemble the roller before clean
it, but it could be done with minimal removal just so the roller could
be turned. The surface of the fuser roller is made of a teflon film
that is easily damaged, so use only light pressure when cleaning, and better
not to use harsh chemicals like acetone or trichloroethane, pay attention when
you clean a fuser
film sleeve, as it's very fragile and easily
demaged, insert the sleeve into a support, wipe away the old grease from the
heating element and apply the new high temperature grease, if you don’t have
the grease, remain the old grease.
