How do I clean the paper feed rollers on my printer?

< 1 min read

    Instructions:
  1. Turn the printer off. Unplug the power cord and remove any cables connected to it.

  2. Open the printer cover. If it has multiple doors, open them all.

  3. Look for the paper rollers. They’re usually the white, rubber rollers located inside the printer.

  4. Take a lint-free cloth and dampen it with a bit of warm water. You could also use a damp, anti static cloth or foam swab.

  5. Rub the moist cloth along the paper feed rollers. Make sure to wipe them in a circular motion.

  6. Turn the rollers with your fingers to make sure you reach all their parts.

  7. Once you’ve cleaned the rollers inside the printer, close the lid and plug in the power cable.

  8. Place a piece of paper in the tray and turn the power button back on.

  9. Print a test page. This will allow you to confirm that the paper feed rollers are now clean.
