Abstract
In order to strip a film-like coating having toner residues, abrasion and paper dust from an intermediate carrier (for example, a photoconductor), a cleaning unit is provided that is planarly executed and bent such that first and second surfaces and a rounded-off bending region arise. The cleaning unit has its first surface arranged parallel to the intermediate carrier such that the coating runs through under the bending region and then between the first surface and the intermediate carrier, so that the toner contained in the coating loosens the coating from the intermediate carrier.
