Abstract
A cleaning disc for removing contaminant matter from a rotatable feed roller belonging to an imaging device. The disc comprises a cleaning layer, which may be a tack layer or an abrasion layer, engageable with the roller and rotatable therewith. The cleaning layer removes the contaminant matter as the cleaning layer engages and rotates with the roller. The cleaning layer is attached to a substrate for supporting the cleaning layer, the substrate having a protruding portion thereof sized to be slidably received in the recess to fix position of the disc to act as a pivot with respect to the feed roller. In addition, a protective layer is removably attached to the cleaning layer for protecting the cleaning layer prior to use.
