Abstract
A cleaning machine for a printer is provided for cleaning an outer peripheral surface of a cylinder of the printer with a cleaning cloth through a pressure pad mounted through a holder on a mount member supported by side plates of the frame of the printer. The cleaning cloth is moved relative to the outer peripheral surface of the cylinder of the printer. The pressure pad is composed of a projected member made of elastic material. The projected member includes a flange portion, a first projected portion toward the cylinder and a second projected portion projected toward the mount member. The first and second projected portion is symmetric with each other for reversible use, resulting in prolonging the service life of the pressure pad.
