An embodiment generally relates to a xerographic fusing apparatus including a fuser member; and a cleaning mechanism for the fuser member. The cleaning mechanism can include an abrasive cleaning web in contact with the fuser member, the abrasive cleaning web including a non-woven fabric and at least one abrasive; a supply roll configured to advance the abrasive cleaning web; and a take-up roll configured to collect the abrasive cleaning web.

Cleaning apparatuses for fusing systems

The present teachings provide a fuser cleaning apparatus that includes a rotatable fuser member and a cleaning web. The cleaning web is impregnated with a chelating agent including citric acid. The cleaning web is translatable and arranged to directly or indirectly contact the rotatable fuser member whereby the citric acid is transferred to the rotatable fuser member to inhibit Zn contamination on the rotatable fuser member.

Chemically treated cleaning web

An electrically conductive latex/antioxidant coating for a corona charging device that is capable of absorbing effluents created during the electrostatographic or xerographic process, a method for making the coating, and applying the coating are described herein.
