Abstract
A cleaning web apparatus includes a housing for holding web material that is used in cleaning a surface of a moving image-bearing member. The housing is supported operationally adjacent the image-bearing member such that the outside surface of the housing frictionally contacts the surface being cleaned. The web material inside the housing is incrementally advanced over the outside surface of the housing, which also serves as a fixed axis for keeping the web material against the surface being cleaned.
